Ingredients
  

Chicken and Vegetables
  • 4 pieces bone-in chicken thighs skin-on for extra flavor
  • 1 pound baby potatoes halved
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes halved
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 cup fresh spinach washed
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil for cooking
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon salt to taste
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper to taste

Method
 

Cooking the Chicken and Potatoes
  1. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season chicken thighs with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning.
  2. Add the chicken thighs to the skillet, skin side down, and sear for about 5-7 minutes until golden brown. Flip and sear the other side for another 5 minutes.
  3. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside. In the same skillet, add the halved baby potatoes and cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  4. Add minced garlic and cherry tomatoes to the skillet, stirring for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
  5. Return the chicken to the skillet, cover, and reduce heat to medium-low. Cook for an additional 15-20 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and potatoes are tender.
  6. In the last 5 minutes of cooking, add fresh spinach and stir until wilted.
  7. Serve hot, garnished with additional herbs if desired.
