Instructions
Wake up your oven and crank it to 425°F — it is about to do some magic! Line a sheet pan with foil to keep things easy-breezy.
Get your potatoes ready! Toss them with olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, 1/2 tsp salt, and pepper. Spread those crispy lovelies on one side of the pan in a single layer.
Pat those chicken thighs dry like you mean it and sprinkle the remaining 1/2 tsp salt all over them. Pop them on the opposite side of the pan, giving each some space.
Slide that pan into the oven and bake for 20 minutes. Then, brush the chicken generously with BBQ sauce, give the potatoes a stir, and pop everything back in for 12–15 more minutes until the chicken hits 165°F and the potatoes are tender and golden.
Once done, slather a little more BBQ sauce on the chicken if you want it saucier before serving up this flavor fiesta!
