Directions

  1. 1

    In a small mixing bowl, combine the coriander, paprika, cumin, cardamom, red pepper flakes, minced garlic, orange juice, and olive oil. Add the marinade to a large ziploc bag with the chicken thighs and cauliflower florets. Shake to coat and marinate for 1-4 hours.

  2. 2

    Preheat a sheet pan in the oven at 400° F. Once preheated, arrange the chicken thighs (skin up), cauliflower, and shallots in a single layer on the preheated sheet pan. Place in the oven on the middle rack and bake for 30-40 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the chicken has reached 165° F and the cauliflower is brown around the edges. If the cauliflower and shallots finish cooking before the chicken, remove them from the pan and set them aside.

  3. 3

    While the chicken is baking, combine the Greek yogurt, orange juice, mint, cilantro, lemon juice, minced garlic, paprika, salt, and pepper in a small bowl.

  4. 4

    To serve, divide the chicken thighs and cauliflower between plates with a dollop of herbed yogurt sauce.
