Ingredients
- 8 pieces bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
- 4 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Step 2
Drizzle the chicken thighs with olive oil and lemon juice, rubbing them all over for even coating.
Step 3
In a small bowl, combine the rosemary, thyme, parsley, minced garlic, sea salt, and black pepper.
Step 4
Rub the herb mixture under the skin and over the surface of each chicken thigh.
Step 5
Arrange the chicken thighs skin-side up on a roasting pan or baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Step 6
Roast in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the skin is crispy.
Step 7
To ensure doneness, make sure the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F (74°C) using a meat thermometer.
Step 8
Allow the chicken to rest for at least 5 minutes before serving to let the juices settle.
Step 9
Serve warm with your choice of paleo-friendly sides such as roasted vegetables or a fresh salad.
