🍳 Recipe Information
Sheet-Pan Chicken With Potatoes, Arugula and Garlic Yogurt
Your typical sheet-pan chicken recipe roasts everything together on a pan at once. This version pairs potatoes with the poultry, and tops everything off with fresh herbs and arugula, making it a true one-pan meal, salad included. A savory yogurt sauce adds a creamy touch, but it’s optional if you’re not a yogurt sauce fan. Feel free to double the recipe if you’re feeding a crowd, though make sure to use two sheet pans so that everything is spread out in one layer, which is critical for browning.
Sheet-Pan Chicken With Potatoes, Arugula and Garlic Yogurt
Your typical sheet-pan chicken recipe roasts everything together on a pan at once. This version pairs potatoes with the poultry, and tops everything off with fresh herbs and arugula, making it a true one-pan meal, salad included. A savory yogurt sauce adds a creamy touch, but it’s optional if you’re not a yogurt sauce fan. Feel free to double the recipe if you’re feeding a crowd, though make sure to use two sheet pans so that everything is spread out in one layer, which is critical for browning.
Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 pounds chicken thighs and drumsticks
- 1 1/4 pounds small Yukon Gold potatoes, halved and cut into 1/2-inch slices
- 2 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt, more as needed
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, more as needed
- 2 tablespoons harissa (or use another thick hot sauce, such as sriracha)
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
- 4 1/2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, more as needed
- 2 leeks, white and light green parts only, halved lengthwise and thinly sliced
- 1/2 teaspoon lemon zest (from 1/2 lemon)
- 1/3 cup plain yogurt (do not use Greek yogurt)
- 1 small garlic clove
- 2 ounces baby arugula
- Chopped fresh dill, as needed
- Lemon juice, as needed
Instructions:
- Combine chicken and potatoes in a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper. In a small bowl, whisk together harissa, cumin and 3 tablespoons oil. Pour over chicken and potatoes and toss to combine. Let stand at room temperature for 30 minutes, or up to 8 hours in the refrigerator.
- Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, combine leeks, lemon zest, a pinch of salt and the remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons oil.
- Heat oven to 425 degrees. Arrange chicken and potatoes on a large rimmed baking sheet in a single layer. Roast 15 minutes. Toss potatoes lightly.
- Scatter leeks over pan. Roast until chicken and potatoes are cooked through and everything is golden and slightly crisped, 25 to 30 minutes longer.
- While chicken cooks, place yogurt in a small bowl. Grate garlic over yogurt and season to taste with salt and pepper.
- To serve, spoon yogurt over chicken and vegetables in the pan. Scatter arugula and dill over mixture. Drizzle with oil and lemon juice and serve.

Reduced oven to 400. and must say, must easier to serve.\n4) Step 4 - don't add leeks yet as written. Wait until the last 15 - 20 minutes.\n5) MAKE MORE SAUCE!

I don't understand the note about not using Greek yogurt, that's what we keep in the house and it worked well. I found the result to be quite similar to Yossy Arefi's Roasted Chicken Thighs With Cauliflower and Herby Yogurt recipe, a favorite in our household, and imagine next time we'll do a mash-up of the two.",

If we have tzatziki, I’ll sub that for the garlic yogurt. Serve the whole thing on a bed of fresh arugula and let the residual heat wilt it on the plate. The flavors are perfect every time. Every!

Roll the plastic up like a jelly roll and close the ends with twist ties. It's easy to remove just what you need for a dish. It's almost as good as fresh and certainly better than dried.",

I found that the fire added a delightful smokiness to the potatoes while the water used to extinguish it created steam in the oven, resulting in deliciously moist chicken. Would recommend!",
