Ingredients:  


10 pieces bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs and/or legs
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon white pepper
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
3 pounds small red potatoes
1 1/2 cups buttermilk ranch dressing*



Arrange chicken and potatoes on a serving platter to serve. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley if desired.
Directions:
Directions:
Add chicken, olive oil, salt, garlic, onion powder and peppers to a large bowl and toss to coat. Really get in there with your hands and massage those spices into the chicken.

Spray one large baking pan (18x13) or two smaller pans (13x9) with cooking spray or rub with a little olive oil. Arrange chicken pieces evenly in pan(s) and bake at 325 degrees for 45 minutes.

Meanwhile, clean potatoes. Leave the smaller potatoes whole and cut the larger ones in half. You don’t want anything bigger than 2” in diameter.

Remove pan(s) from oven. Arrange potatoes evenly around chicken pieces. Return pan(s) to oven and continue cooking for 30 minutes.

Remove pan(s) from oven. Baste chicken and potatoes with buttermilk ranch dressing. Sprinkle potatoes with a little coarse grain salt. Return pan(s) to oven and continue cooking for 30 more minutes.

Remove pan(s) from oven. Increase oven temperature to 375 degrees. Baste chicken and potatoes with buttermilk ranch dressing again. Return pan(s) to oven and continue cooking for 25-30 minutes or until chicken is golden brown.

OK, in summary, here are the cooking temps/times. Because if you’re like me you’ve already seen a squirrel and forgotten which step you’re on.

325 degrees – Chicken only – bake 45 minutes
325 degrees – Add potatoes – bake 30 minutes
325 degrees – Baste everything, salt potatoes – bake 30 minutes
375 degrees – Baste everything again – bake 25-30 minutes
~2 hours and 15 minutes total cook time~

Personal Notes:
*Make sure you buy an actual buttermilk ranch dressing. Check the ingredients list to be sure buttermilk is one of the top three ingredients. Do NOT buy light or fat free dressing.
