These Roasted Chicken Thighs & Radishes are cooked on a sheet pan along with red onions for a delicious and flavorful dinner with very little effort. Perfectly seasoned, juicy and tender chicken thighs, roasted with radishes, and served with a tangy lemon crème fraîche sauce. This quick-cooking dish comes together in just about 35 minutes. The chicken thighs have golden, crispy skin, and the radishes are so juicy. Roasting mellows the radishes’ bitter taste and gives them a sweetness that is delicious. This is hands-down my new favorite way to enjoy radishes in spring.
I love cooking with chicken thighs. They are tasty, flavorful, and always juicy. The key to getting crispy skin is to pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels before seasoning them. Feel free to use chicken breasts or legs. Just make sure to check the internal temperature of the chicken. Once the internal temperature of the meat reaches 165 °F, remove it from the oven. Serve the roasted chicken and radishes with lemon crème fraîche sauce and a green salad to complete the meal.
To make the Roasted Chicken Thighs & Radishes, you will need the following ingredients:
Preheat the oven to 450 °F.
Brush both sides of bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs with 1 tablespoon oil and sprinkle with ½ teaspoon each garlic and onion powder and ¼ teaspoon each salt and black pepper.
In a bowl, toss 5 cups radishes and the wedges of 1 small red onion with the remaining 1 tablespoon oil and ¼ teaspoon each salt and black pepper.
Arrange the chicken thighs and vegetables in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet.
Roast for 30 minutes or until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part of a chicken registers 165 °F.
In a small bowl, whisk together ½ cup crème fraîche, 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard, 1 teaspoon grated lemon zest, 1 teaspoon lemon juice, and 1 tablespoon finely chopped spring onions.
Serve the roasted chicken and radishes with the sauce, and enjoy!
