método

  1. Place rack in upper third of the oven, preheat to 425 degrees
  2. Pat chicken thighs dry and season with ½ tsp salt
  3. Put chicken, skin side down on a cold cast iron skillet or another oven proof skillet and cook on the stove over medium heat. Cook until light brown (8-10 min), move around pan and continue cooking until deeply browned (4 more minutes)
  4. Set chicken aside on a separate dish, skin side up
  5. Add potatoes, fennel, parsnips, carrots, onion, garlic, and remaining seasonings to the skillet. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently until softened, about 10 minutes.
  6. Return chicken to pan, skin-side up, and put pan in the oven for the chicken to finish cooking through and veggies to soften, at least an additional 15 minutes.
  7. Remove from oven, set chicken thighs aside to cool. Squeeze juice of one lemon over veggies and stir. Top with fennel fronds. Cut remaining lemon into wedges for serving.
