Instructions

1. Heat the oven to 425°F. Wash and dry 1 lb boneless skinless chicken thighs ($4.49/lb sale), 1 lb delicata squash ($1.49/lb), 1 bunch lacinato kale ($2.99), 1/2 lb yellow onion ($1.49/lb), 1/2 lemon ($1.69 each), and 1 lb russet potatoes from the 5 lb bag ($2.99/5 lb). Mince 3 garlic cloves from 1 head garlic ($1.50 each).
2. Cut the 1 lb russet potatoes into 3/4-inch cubes. Halve the 1 lb delicata squash lengthwise, scoop out seeds, and cut into 1/2-inch half moons. Slice the 1/2 lb yellow onion into wedges. Strip the 1 bunch kale from the stems and tear into large pieces.
3. On a sheet pan, toss the 1 lb russet potatoes and 1 lb delicata squash with 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Roast for 15 minutes.
4. Meanwhile, season the 1 lb chicken thighs with 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, and a pinch of paprika or chili flakes if using.
5. After the vegetables roast 15 minutes, push them around the pan and add the 1 lb seasoned chicken thighs plus the 1/2 lb onion wedges. Roast for 18 to 22 minutes more, until the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are browned and tender.
6. While everything roasts, toss the torn 1 bunch kale with the 3 minced garlic cloves, 2 teaspoons olive oil, a pinch of salt, and 1 tablespoon lemon juice from the 1/2 lemon.
7. When the chicken and vegetables are nearly done, scatter the seasoned kale onto the pan or onto a second pan if space is tight. Roast 4 to 6 minutes until wilted and a little crisp at the edges.
8. Serve the roasted 1 lb chicken thighs with the 1 lb delicata squash, 1 lb russet potatoes, roasted onion, and garlicky kale. Finish with the remaining lemon juice to brighten everything. Chardonnay or Pinot Noir are both excellent with this dinner.
