Garlic & Herb Roasted Chicken

Course Main Course

Ingredients

  • 6 bone in skin on chicken thighs
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 4 garlic cloves finely minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • ¾ teaspoon salt or to taste
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • Optional: fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and lightly grease a baking tray or line it with parchment paper.
  2. Pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels so the skin roasts nicely. Place them in a large bowl.
  3. Add olive oil, minced garlic, thyme, oregano, rosemary, paprika, salt, pepper, and lemon juice to the bowl. Mix well so every piece of chicken is coated with the herb mixture.
  4. Arrange the chicken thighs skin side up on the prepared tray. Leave a little space between each piece so they roast evenly.
  5. Roast in the oven for 35 to 40 minutes until the skin turns golden and crisp and the chicken is cooked through.
  6. Let the chicken rest for a few minutes after removing it from the oven. Sprinkle chopped parsley on top if you like.
