Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 425°F. Pat dry 6 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs and place them skin-side up on a rimmed baking sheet. Drizzle 3 tbsp olive oil evenly over the chicken.
  2. Step 2: Sprinkle 1 1/2 tsp kosher salt and 1 tsp black pepper evenly over the chicken skin. Tuck 4 sprigs fresh rosemary and 8 whole peeled garlic cloves around the chicken pieces.
  3. Step 3: Roast in the oven for 35-40 minutes until the chicken skin is golden and crisp and the internal temperature reaches 165°F. Remove from oven and squeeze juice from 1 lemon wedge over the chicken before serving.
