Paprika Chicken Thighs with Brussels Sprouts

Paprika-rubbed chicken thighs are nestled into Brussels sprouts and shallots and roasted on a sheet pan in the oven for an easy, delicious dinner. As the chicken thighs roast, the garlicky drippings flavor the Brussels sprouts and shallots. Simple one-pan cooking! Smoked paprika adds a touch of smoky flavor—look for it at supermarkets or in the bulk-spice section at natural-foods markets. Regular paprika can be used in its place, but doesn’t add the hint of smoke.
