Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 425°F. In a small bowl, combine 4 minced garlic cloves, 2 tbsp chopped fresh rosemary, 2 tbsp chopped fresh thyme, 3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil, 1 tsp sea salt, and 1/2 tsp black pepper to form a herb paste.
  2. Step 2: Pat dry 6 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs with paper towels, then rub the herb paste evenly over the skin and under the skin where possible.
  3. Step 3: Arrange the thighs skin side up on a rimmed baking sheet and roast in the oven for 35-40 minutes until the skin is golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 165°F, juices run clear, and the skin is crispy.
  4. Step 4: Remove from oven and let rest for 5 minutes before serving to allow juices to redistribute.
