Ingredients
Steps
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Zest the lemons and set it aside for garnish.
- In a bowl, combine the garlic, thyme, parsley, lemon juice, olive oil, salt and pepper.
- In a 13×9 baking dish, arrange the red onion in a single layer.
- Pat the chicken dry with paper towels and then smother it with the herb-garlic mixture. Make sure to pull up the chicken skin slightly to get the herbs and garlic underneath.
- Place the chicken on top of the veggies, stretching the skin out over each piece.
- Roast for 30 minutes, then remove it from the oven.
- Quickly add the green beans to the pan, stirring them into the onions to coat with oil. Return the pan to the oven.
- Roast for another 20-30 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and the skin is crispy (165 F internal temperature).
- Let the chicken rest for 5-10 minutes before topping with the lemon zest and remaining parsley and thyme.
