Roasted Brussels sprouts and chicken thighs are a match we go back to over and over again in the Test Kitchen. Paired with cumin, thyme, sweet potatoes and a hit of sherry vinegar, they create one of our favorite easy dinner recipes.

It’s a good base idea for a recipe but the directions seem off.. first of all the veggies can all go in with the chicken at the same time. Second, the chicken thighs absolutely won’t cook in 15 minutes on 425, I’ve had mine in right now for about 35 and they’re still slightly pink

Chicken thighs will NOT be cooked through after 15 minutes at 425. I also added 15 minute to chicken time. Wish I had put all three in at same time. Live and learn.

Yummy & Healthy! Good mix of sweet & savory. I don't measure veggies well so I had a fuller pan. I added 1/2 yellow onion, cut up to 1" bites. I didn't have Sherry vinegar, so I omitted it altogether.

Cooked chicken for an additional 15 min. as it didn’t seem quite fully cooked. No mention in preparation of what to do with sherry vinegar so omitted it. We enjoyed the outcome.
