Sheet-Pan Chicken Thighs With Brussels Sprouts and Gnocchi

Active Time: 20 minutes

Total Time: 40 minutes

Serves 4

• 4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh oregano, divided
• 2 large cloves garlic, minced, divided
• 1/2 teaspoon ground pepper, divided
• 1/4 teaspoon salt, divided
• 1 pound Brussels sprouts, trimmed and quartered
• 1 (16-ounce) package shelf-stable potato gnocchi
• 1 cup sliced red onion
• 4 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs, trimmed
• 1 cup halved cherry tomatoes
• 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar

Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.

Stir 2 tablespoons oil, 1 tablespoon oregano, half the garlic, 1/4 teaspoon pepper, and 1/8 teaspoon salt together in a large bowl. Add Brussels sprouts, gnocchi, and onion; toss to coat. Spread on a large rimmed baking sheet.

Stir 1 tablespoon oil, the remaining 1 tablespoon oregano, the remaining garlic, and the remaining 1/4 teaspoon pepper and 1/8 teaspoon salt in the large bowl. Add chicken and toss to coat. Nestle the chicken into the vegetable mixture. Roast for 10 minutes.
