Method

  1. Heat the oven to 400°F (200°C) with a sheet pan inside.
  2. Toss the chicken, chickpeas and onion with the oil and za’atar, spread them in one layer on the hot pan, roast 18 minutes.
  3. Add the tomato wedges and garlic for 7 minutes more, until the chickpeas crisp and the chicken reads 165°F (74°C).
  4. Whisk the tahini with the lemon juice and a spoonful of water, spoon it onto the plate, tip the pan over it and scatter the mint.
Chef’s tipHeat the pan, not just the oven. On hot metal thighs brown at once; on a cold pan they steam.
Make it twoDoubles onto two pans, never one. Keeps three days.
