In a large resealable freezer bag, combine olive oil, white wine, minced garlic, rosemary, thyme, oregano, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper.
Add the chicken thighs to the bag. Seal the bag and gently massage to coat the chicken evenly with the marinade.
Label the bag with the recipe name and date, then place it in the freezer if you are making this as part of your Once A Month Cooking (OAMC) plan. Allow to freeze flat for easy storage.
When ready to cook, thaw the bag in the refrigerator overnight.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Transfer the chicken and marinade to a baking dish, spreading the chicken pieces out evenly.
Bake uncovered for 35-40 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and the skin is golden brown.
Serve hot with your choice of sides, such as roasted vegetables, a fresh salad, or crusty bread to soak up the juices.
