1.5 lbs chicken thighs
2 tbsp olive oil
1 medium lemon
2 tsp chopped fresh thyme
3 cloves minced garlic
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Pat chicken thighs dry with paper towels, then season evenly with 1 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp black pepper.
Step 2: Place chicken skin-side up in a single layer in a baking dish. Drizzle with 2 tbsp olive oil, then scatter 3 minced garlic cloves and 2 tsp chopped thyme over the top.
Step 3: Cut 1 medium lemon into 8 wedges, then place wedges around the chicken. Roast for 35-40 minutes until chicken reaches 165°F (74°C) internally and skin is crisp and golden.
Step 4: Remove chicken and lemon wedges from the dish, reserving pan juices. Squeeze the roasted lemon wedges over the chicken and serve immediately.
