Ingredients

• 6 pieces Bone-in chicken thighs
• 2 tablespoons Butter
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 4 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
• 2 tablespoons Fresh lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground turmeric
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper
• 0.5 cup Greek yogurt
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium-sized bowl, prepare the marinade by combining olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, ground cumin, ground cinnamon, paprika, turmeric, salt, and black pepper.

Step 2

Add the Greek yogurt to the marinade and mix thoroughly to form a smooth paste.

Step 3

Pat the chicken thighs dry with a paper towel, then coat them evenly with the marinade. Be sure to rub the marinade under the skin for extra flavor.

Step 4

Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to infuse into the chicken.

Step 5

When ready to cook, preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 6

In a large oven-safe skillet or roasting dish, heat the butter over medium-high heat until melted and bubbling.

Step 7

Add the marinated chicken thighs to the skillet, skin-side down, and sear for 3-4 minutes or until the skin turns golden brown.

Step 8

Flip the chicken thighs over and transfer the skillet to the preheated oven.

Step 9

Roast the chicken for 30-35 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C), and the juices run clear when pierced with a knife.

Step 10

Remove the skillet from the oven and let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Step 11

Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve warm with your choice of sides, such as roasted vegetables or a simple green salad.
