Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 425°F. Pat chicken thighs dry, then season both sides with sea salt.
  2. Step 2: Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken skin-side down and sear for 5 minutes until golden brown, then flip and sear another 2 minutes.
  3. Step 3: Push chicken to the edges of the skillet, add garlic cloves and mixed herbs to the center, then spoon remaining 2 tbsp olive oil over everything. Add lemon wedges on top.
  4. Step 4: Roast uncovered for 25 minutes until chicken reaches 165°F internally and skin is crisp. Let rest 5 minutes before serving with pan juices.
