Lemon-Garlic Dump Chicken Thighs with Broccoli

Tender chicken thighs soak up a bright lemon-garlic rosemary broth that caramelizes into golden edges, while the broccoli and onion turn silky and sweet beside them. Each bite delivers juicy meat, crisp-tinged vegetables, and a lively, savory finish.

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup low-sodium chicken broth
  • 2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
  • Zest of 1 lemon
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 2 clove garlic, grated
  • 1/2 tsp crushed dried rosemary
  • 1/2 tsp salt, divided
  • 1/2 tsp ground pepper, divided
  • 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken thighs, trimmed
  • 4 cup broccoli florets
  • 1 cup halved and sliced onion

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F.
  2. Whisk broth, oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, garlic, rosemary and 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper in a measuring cup.
  3. Sprinkle chicken pieces with the remaining 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Arrange in a 9-by-13-inch baking dish along with broccoli and onion. Pour the broth mixture over the chicken and vegetables; bake until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of a thigh registers 165°F, about 30 minutes.
  4. Divide the chicken and vegetables among 4 plates and drizzle with some of the sauce.
