05 - Spread vegetables in a single layer on the prepared sheet pan. Nestle chicken thighs among vegetables, skin side up.
06 - Roast in the oven for 20 minutes, or until chicken is golden, cooked through with an internal temperature of 165°F, and vegetables are tender.
07 - Drizzle reserved marinade over chicken and vegetables. Broil for 2 minutes for additional caramelization, if desired.
08 - Serve hot, garnished with extra lemon zest or fresh herbs according to preference.
