1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 425°F. In a large bowl, whisk together 3 tbsp lemon juice, 4 minced garlic cloves, 3 tbsp olive oil, 2 tsp dried oregano, 1.5 tsp salt, and 1 tsp black pepper.
2. Step 2: Add 6 bone-in skin-on chicken thighs to the bowl and toss well to coat. Let marinate for 10 minutes while preparing vegetables.
