Simplify your dinner routine with this incredibly flavorful and effortless Za'atar Spiced Chicken & Potato Traybake. Chicken thighs and wedges of Yukon Gold potatoes are tossed with generous amounts of olive oil, lemon juice, and the iconic Middle Eastern spice blend, za'atar—a mix of thyme, sumac, and sesame seeds. As everything roasts on a single sheet pan, the chicken skin becomes crispy, the potatoes golden and tender, and the za'atar infuses the dish with its earthy, tangy, and nutty flavor. It's a minimal-prep, maximum-flavor meal that requires little clean-up, making it a perfect weeknight winner for the whole family.
