Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces chicken thighs (bone-in, skin-on)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 pieces garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 cup chicken broth
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels and set aside.
In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, minced garlic, paprika, dried thyme, dried oregano, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper to form a marinade.
Rub the marinade evenly over all sides of the chicken thighs.
Heat an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, sear the chicken thighs skin-side down for 3-4 minutes until golden brown. Flip and sear the other side for an additional 2 minutes.
Remove the skillet from heat and pour the chicken broth around the chicken thighs, being careful not to pour it over the skin to keep it crispy.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F (74°C).
Carefully remove the skillet from the oven and let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Garnish with fresh chopped parsley if desired and serve warm.
