Ingredients

  • 1 pound plum or small tomatoes, halved if large
  • 1/2 cup pitted green olives
  • 8 cloves garlic, quartered
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
  • 4 bone-in, skin-on chicken legs
  • Kosher salt and black pepper
  • Bread, for serving

Method

  • Heat oven to 425° F with a rack in the highest position.
  • Toss the tomatoes, olives, garlic, oil, and thyme in a 3-quart baking dish.
  • Season the chicken with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Nestle the chicken, skin-side up, in the vegetables.
  • Bake until the chicken is browned and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest leg (avoiding the bone) registers 165° F, 40 to 45 minutes. Serve with the bread.
