Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 pieces chicken thighs
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 cloves garlic
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon thyme
- 1 teaspoon rosemary
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 cup chicken broth
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons parsley
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Rinse the chicken thighs under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels.
In a small bowl, mix together olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, thyme, rosemary, paprika, salt, and black pepper to create a marinade.
Rub the marinade evenly over the chicken thighs, ensuring they are well coated.
Heat a large, oven-safe skillet over medium heat and melt the butter.
Place the chicken thighs skin-side down in the skillet and sear them for 4-5 minutes, until the skin is golden brown. Flip the chicken and cook for an additional 2 minutes.
Pour the chicken broth into the skillet, ensuring it surrounds the chicken but does not cover the skin.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and roast for 35-40 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F (74°C).
Once cooked, remove the skillet from the oven and let the chicken rest for 5 minutes.
Sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley before serving. Pair with your favorite side dishes for a complete meal.
