Steps:
- Place a rack in top third of oven; preheat to 425°F. Mix 1/4 cup oil, 1 Tbsp. plus 1 tsp. cumin, 1 1/2 tsp. salt, and 1 1/2 tsp. pepper in a large bowl. Add potatoes and toss to coat. Arrange potatoes on a rimmed baking sheet. Add chicken to bowl and toss to coat. Arrange skin side up on baking sheet in between potatoes.
- Roast chicken and potatoes, tossing potatoes halfway through, until potatoes are crispy, chicken skin is browned, and an instant-read thermometer inserted near bone registers 165°F, 30-35 minutes.
- Meanwhile, toss cabbage, onion, mint, and jalapeño in a large bowl. Cook vinegar, honey, and remaining 2 Tbsp. oil, 1/4 tsp. salt, 1/4 tsp. pepper, and 1/4 tsp. cumin in a small saucepan over medium heat until warmed through. Pour hot dressing over cabbage mixture and toss to coat. Let sit until ready to use.

- Divide remaining 4 chicken thighs, potatoes, and slaw among plates.
- Do Ahead
- Chicken and slaw can be made 2 days ahead; cover and chill.
