Recipe Card
For the Chicken
ingredients
- 2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
- 2 teaspoons sugar
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon chipotle chili powder
- 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon salt, divided
- 2 1/2 pounds bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs (4-6 thighs)
- 12 ounces baby purple potatoes, halved lengthwise
- 12 ounces Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved lengthwise
- 2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
- 1/2 cup unsalted chicken broth
For the Ají Verde
ingredients
- 1/2 cup fresh cilantro leaves
- 1 jalapeño pepper, seeded
- 1 small garlic clove
- 1/4 cup sour cream
- 1/4 cup canola mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon white wine vinegar
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Method
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 425ºF.
Step 2
Combine the soy sauce, sugar, garlic powder, chipotle chili powder, thyme, and 1/2 teaspoon of the salt in a small bowl to form a paste. Rub the mixture all over the chicken to coat.
Step 3
Combine the potatoes, Brussels sprouts, and 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large bowl. Toss with the remaining 1/2 teaspoon of salt.
Step 4
Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon oil in a large ovenproof skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken, skin side down, and cook until well browned, about 4 minutes. Remove the chicken from the skillet and add the potatoes and Brussels sprouts.Place the chicken, skin side up, on top of the vegetables and pour in the broth; cook for 2 minutes.Transfer to the oven and roast until the vegetables are tender and a instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the largest piece of chicken registers 170ºF, 23 to 25 minutes.
Step 5
While the chicken roasts, make the ají verde. Puree the cilantro, jalapeno, garlic, sour cream, mayonnaise, oil, vinegar, and salt in a blender.
