Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 3 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tablespoon Fresh rosemary, chopped
- 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 0.25 cup Chicken broth
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Pat the chicken thighs dry with a paper towel and set them aside.
In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, thyme, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Rub the seasoning mixture all over the chicken thighs, making sure to get it under the skin as well.
Place the seasoned chicken thighs in a roasting pan or an oven-safe dish in a single layer, skin side up.
Drizzle the lemon juice over the chicken and pour the chicken broth into the bottom of the pan.
Transfer the dish to the preheated oven and roast for 35-40 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and the skin is golden brown.
Remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving. This allows the juices to redistribute, ensuring moist and flavorful meat.
Serve warm with your choice of sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a green salad.
