Ingredients

4 servings
  • 1 ½ pounds bone-in skin-on chicken thighs (approx. 5 to 6 ounces each)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1 lemon (juiced and zested, extra for serving if desired)
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • salt and black pepper (to taste)

Steps

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a pan with foil and place a baking rack on top (the rack is optional but helps the bottom crisp).

  2. Combine all ingredients in a medium bowl. Toss well to combine and refrigerate at least 30 minutes or up to 2 hours.

  3. Place the chicken thighs on the rack and roast 35-40 minutes or until chicken reaches 165°F.

  4. Broil 2-3 minutes to crisp if desired. Serve with additional lemon wedges.
