Step-by-Step Instructions

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and prepare a rimmed baking sheet with olive oil.
Combine chicken thighs, diced potatoes, garlic powder, chili powder, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Mix until well-coated.
Spread the seasoned chicken and potatoes in a single layer on the baking sheet, adding chunks of red onion around them.
Roast in the preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes until chicken reaches 165°F (75°C) and potatoes are tender. Broil for 2-3 minutes for extra crispiness.
Let the dish rest for 5 to 10 minutes before serving. Garnish with chopped scallions and a squeeze of lemon juice if desired.
