Ingredients
- 8 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs (about 2.5 lbs)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 lemon, sliced
- Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Pat chicken thighs dry with paper towels.
- In a small bowl, mix olive oil, garlic, thyme, rosemary, paprika, salt, and pepper.
- Rub the mixture all over the chicken thighs, including under the skin.
- Arrange chicken skin-side up in a single layer in a baking dish. Place lemon slices around the chicken.
- Roast for 35-40 minutes, until skin is golden and crispy and internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
- Let rest 5 minutes. Garnish with parsley if desired.
Tips
- For extra crispiness, broil the chicken for the last 2-3 minutes.
- Serve with roasted vegetables or a simple salad.
- Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
