  1. In a small bowl or large measuring cup, mix together the olive oil, green za'atar spice mix, finely ground salt, and freshly grated garlic to create the marinade mixture.
  2. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
  3. Rinse chicken thighs in a light vinegar bath.
  4. Pat dry both sides of all chicken thighs with a paper towel.
  5. Drop a bit of za'atar oil mixture on the bottom of a deep-sided bowl or casserole dish and coat one side of each chicken thigh, then flip to coat the other side. Repeat until all thighs are coated.
  6. Prepare cauliflower by cutting it into large florets.
  7. Pour about 1/3 of the za'atar oil mixture over the cauliflower and toss to lightly coat.
  8. Distribute the coated cauliflower on a parchment-lined rimmed baking sheet.
  9. Nestle the prepared chicken thighs between the cauliflower.
  10. Drizzle the remaining za'atar oil over the chicken thighs.
  11. Transfer the sheet pan into the middle position of the preheated oven and bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the internal meat temperature is 165°F (74°C) and the outer skin is golden brown.
  12. Remove from the oven and let rest for a few minutes before serving.
