Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius).
In a large bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, thyme, parsley, lemon juice, salt, and pepper.
Add the chicken thighs to the bowl and mix well to ensure they are evenly coated with the herb and garlic mixture.
Place the chicken thighs in a single layer in a baking dish or a roasting pan.
Roast in the preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit (75 degrees Celsius) and the chicken is nicely golden brown and cooked through.
Remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Serve hot with your choice of sides such as steamed vegetables or a light salad for a complete low-fat meal.
