Ingredients

Servings:4
  • 6 pieces Bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
  • 3 tablespoons Olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons Fresh lemon juice
  • 4 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tablespoon Fresh rosemary, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon Fresh thyme leaves
  • 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons Kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon Black pepper
  • 1 whole Lemon, sliced into rounds(optional)

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and lightly grease a large baking dish or cast-iron skillet.

  2. 2

    Pat the chicken thighs completely dry with paper towels to ensure the skin gets extra crispy.

  3. 3

    In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, rosemary, thyme, lemon zest, salt, and pepper.

  4. 4

    Place the chicken in the baking dish and pour the herb mixture over them, rubbing it thoroughly under and over the skin.

  5. 5

    Arrange the chicken skin-side up and tuck the optional lemon slices between the pieces for extra aroma.

  6. 6

    Roast in the center of the oven for 30 to 35 minutes until the skin is golden brown and crispy.

  7. 7

    Check that the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) using a meat thermometer.

  8. 8

    Remove from the oven and let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving to keep the juices inside.
