Instructions

Step 1: Preheat oven to 425°F. Pat 8 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs dry with paper towels. Season with 1 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp black pepper on all sides.
Step 2: Heat 3 tbsp olive oil in a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken skin-side down and cook 5-6 minutes until skin is golden brown and crisp. Flip and cook 2 minutes more.
Step 3: Push chicken to one side of the skillet. Add 4 minced garlic cloves and cook 1 minute until fragrant. Add 1 cup cherry tomatoes, 2 tsp chopped rosemary, and 1 tsp chopped thyme. Stir to combine.
Step 4: Transfer skillet to oven and roast for 20-25 minutes until chicken reaches 165°F internal temperature and tomatoes are softened and slightly caramelized. Let rest 5 minutes before serving.
