Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) to ensure it’s ready for roasting the chicken and vegetables.
- Prepare Proteins: Place the bone-in chicken thighs and Italian sausages on a large baking sheet or roasting pan, allowing space for even cooking.

- Roast the Dish: Place the pan in the preheated oven and roast for 45 to 55 minutes. Halfway through cooking, turn the sausages and stir the vegetables to promote even cooking and browning.
- Check for Doneness: Ensure the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and the potatoes are golden and tender.
