# Expert Suggestions:

01 -
  • The radishes lose all their pepperiness and become these incredibly sweet, tender bites that surprise everyone who tries them
  • Everything cooks on one pan so you can pour a glass of wine and relax while dinner practically makes itself
  • Those pan juices mixed with lemon at the end create an instant sauce that youll want to drink with a spoon
02 -
  • Dont crowd the pan too much or the vegetables will steam instead of roast, and nobody wants soggy radishes
  • The lemon really does make a huge difference, so please dont skip it even if youre tired
  • If your chicken thighs are extra large, you might need an extra 5 minutes, but start checking at 30
03 -
  • Pat the chicken skin dry with paper towels before tossing in the marinade for extra crispy skin
  • If the vegetables are done before the chicken, just remove them with tongs and let the chicken finish alone
