Ingredients
  

For the Chicken
  • 4 pieces chicken thighs, bone-in and skin-on
  • 4 tablespoons olive oil, divided
  • 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
  • 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, minced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
For the Vegetables
  • 1 pound Brussels sprouts, halved and ends removed
  • 2 pieces delicata squash, halved, seeded, and cut into 1/2 inch moons
  • 3 pieces shallots, cut into about 3/4 inch rounds
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup
  • Salt and pepper to season

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 425 degrees F.
  2. In a mixing bowl, add the chicken thighs and pour the balsamic vinegar over them.
  3. Add minced garlic, fresh thyme, rosemary, and 2 tablespoons of olive oil to the chicken. Massage the marinade into the chicken.
  4. Season the chicken generously with salt and pepper and set aside.
  5. In another mixing bowl, add the Brussels sprouts, delicata squash, and shallots.
  6. Drizzle the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil and the maple syrup over the vegetables, then toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper.
Assembly
  1. Spread the chicken thighs out on a sheet pan, skin side up, and add the seasoned Brussels sprouts, delicata squash, and shallots around the chicken in a single layer.
Cooking
  1. Place the sheet pan in the preheated oven and roast for about 45 minutes, checking for doneness at the 35-minute mark.
  2. The chicken should reach an internal temperature of 165 degrees F. If the skin isn't crispy enough, switch on the broiler for an additional 2 minutes, watching carefully.
Serving
  1. Remove from the oven and let it sit for a few minutes before serving.

Notes

For best results, ensure the chicken thighs are dry before seasoning. Adjust vegetable sizes for even cooking. Experiment with different vegetables based on what’s in season.
