Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels and place them in a large mixing bowl.
Drizzle the olive oil over the chicken thighs and add the minced garlic, fresh thyme, rosemary, oregano, salt, and black pepper.
Toss the chicken thighs in the oil and herbs mixture until they are evenly coated.
Arrange the chicken thighs in a single layer on a baking sheet, skin-side up.
Place lemon slices on top of the chicken thighs, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
Roast in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the skin is crispy and golden.
To check doneness, insert a meat thermometer into the thickest part of the thigh without touching the bone; the internal temperature should read at least 165°F (75°C).
Remove from the oven and let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving.
Serve the herb roasted chicken thighs with your favorite keto-friendly side dishes.
