Parmesan-Basil Roasted Chicken Thighs are a flavorful dish inspired by Italian cuisine, blending tender, bone-in chicken thighs with aromatic herbs and a crispy Parmesan crust. The chicken is marinated with olive oil, garlic, fresh basil, and a touch of lemon juice, then oven-roasted to golden perfection. This dish offers a hearty dose of protein, essential for muscle repair, while the olive oil and basil contribute antioxidants and healthy fats. Parmesan cheese provides savory richness, though it adds some saturated fat and sodium. Removing the skin can further reduce fat content for a lighter option. With its balance of nourishing ingredients and Mediterranean flavors, these roasted chicken thighs make a wholesome and satisfying meal when paired with roasted vegetables or a fresh green salad.
