Ingredients
- 8 pieces boneless skinless chicken thighs
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons fresh rosemary
- 2 tablespoons fresh thyme
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
- 1 tablespoon fresh oregano
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 4 cloves garlic cloves
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Step 2
In a small mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, finely chopped fresh rosemary, thyme, parsley, and oregano.
Step 3
Add the lemon juice, freshly ground black pepper, minced garlic cloves, and onion powder to the herb and oil mixture. Mix well to form an herb marinade.
Step 4
Arrange the chicken thighs in a single layer in a large baking dish.
Step 5
Pour the herb marinade over the chicken thighs, ensuring each piece is well-coated.
Step 6
Allow the chicken to marinate for at least 10 minutes for the flavors to blend.
Step 7
Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and place it in the preheated oven.
Step 8
Bake in the oven for 35 minutes, then remove the foil for the last 10 minutes to let the chicken lightly brown.
Step 9
Check the chicken for doneness: the internal temperature should reach 165°F (75°C) and the juices should run clear.
Step 10
Once done, remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for about 5 minutes before serving.
Step 11
Serve the herb-infused chicken thighs with steamed vegetables or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
