This one-pan dinner is the only thing standing between you and ordering takeout (again). Bone-in chicken thighs, sweet potatoes, and shallots get smothered with miso-chili sauce and baked until the sweet potatoes are tender and caramelized and the chicken is juicy and golden brown.

Ingredients

1 (1") piece of ginger, peeled, grated or finely chopped

3 cloves garlic, grated or finely chopped

2 Tbsp. chili crisp, plus more for serving 

2 Tbsp. honey

2 Tbsp. white miso paste

1 Tbsp. rice wine vinegar 

1 Tbsp. plus 1 tsp. neutral oil, divided 

1 lb. sweet potatoes, peeled, cut into 3/4" pieces 

2 small shallots, quartered 

4 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs (about 2 lb.)

Sea salt (for taste)

Freshly ground black pepper 

Chopped fresh cilantro, for serving

Step 1

Arrange a rack in center of oven; preheat to 425°. Place a baking sheet on the rack to preheat.

Step 2

In a small bowl, combine ginger, garlic, chili crisps, honey, miso, vinegar, and 1 Tbsp. oil. In a large bowl, combine potatoes and shallots. Add half of miso mixture, season with salt. Toss until coated.

Step 3

Carefully remove baking sheet from oven. Drizzle with remaining 1 tsp. oil. Arrange vegetables in an even layer on sheet.

Step 4

Pat chicken dry; generously season both sides with salt and pepper. Transfer to a large bowl and add the remaining miso mixture. Toss until coated. Arrange on sheet skin side up with potatoes in a single layer.

Step 5

Bake, rotating halfway through, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into thickest part of chicken registers 165° and potatoes are cooked through and starting to caramelize, 30 to 35 minutes.

Step 6

Turn on the broiler. Broiler, watch closely, until chicken skin starts to brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Top with cilantro and chili crisp.
