This roasted chicken thigh traybake is a quintessential high-protein meal that prioritises both flavour and simplicity. By roasting the chicken directly alongside seasonal root vegetables, the potatoes and carrots absorb the savoury juices and rendered fat, resulting in a depth of flavour that is difficult to achieve with separate cooking. A subtle hint of nutmeg adds a sophisticated warmth to the traditional thyme seasoning, elevating this comforting dish into something truly special for a midweek dinner.
Ideal for those seeking a nutritious, balanced meal without a sink full of washing up, this recipe relies on just one large baking tray. Yukon Gold potatoes are chosen for their naturally buttery texture, which contrasts beautifully with the crisp, golden chicken skin. Serve this wholesome platter in the centre of the table for a relaxed family feast, perhaps with a side of steamed greens or a light watercress salad to cut through the richness.
