Enjoy the savory, comforting flavors of rotisserie chicken in a simple one-pan bake. Tender chicken thighs are nestled atop creamy, parmesan-crusted potatoes for an easy weeknight dinner the whole family will love.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C).
In a small bowl, combine the onion powder, garlic powder, paprika, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper to create the spice rub.
Rub the spice mixture thoroughly onto the chicken thigh fillets, ensuring most of the seasoning is applied to the skin side.
Heat olive oil in a large oven-safe frying pan over medium heat. Place the chicken in the pan, skin-side down, and cook for 10 minutes to render the fat. Flip and cook the other side for 2 minutes, then remove the chicken to a plate.
Carefully pour out and discard the rendered fat, but do not wipe the pan. Return the pan to the stove and increase the heat to medium-high.
Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the pan and sauté for 2 minutes until fragrant.
Pour in half of the milk and bring to a simmer. Use a wooden spoon to scrape the bottom of the pan, mixing the flavorful browned bits into the milk.
Layer half of the sliced potatoes into the pan. Scatter over a pinch of salt and pepper, and sprinkle with half of the parmesan cheese.
Repeat with the remaining potatoes, salt, and parmesan, then pour the remaining milk over the top.
Use a spatula to gently press the potatoes into the milk. Let it simmer on the stovetop for 10 minutes until some of the milk has evaporated.
Place the seared chicken on top of the potatoes. Transfer the pan to the oven and bake for 40 to 50 minutes, until the chicken is fully cooked and the potatoes are golden brown and tender.
Allow the dish to rest for 5 minutes before serving to let the juices redistribute.
For extra crispy skin, ensure the chicken is patted dry before applying the rub. If you do not have an oven-safe skillet, you can transfer the potato and milk mixture to a greased baking dish before topping with the chicken and moving to the oven.
