Simple roasted lemon chicken thighs with potatoes and green beans. Chicken thighs are my favorite and so much more flavorful and juice than regular chicken breast. I also recommend chicken thighs for new baby eaters; they are easier to chew and less dry. Temple (11 months) loved this dish just as much as we did!

Hi! This looks amazing. Do you use bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs or boneless, skinless? Thanks!
