Ingredients

• 6 pieces chicken thighs
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 4 cloves garlic
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon thyme
• 1 teaspoon rosemary
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 0.5 cup chicken broth
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 2 tablespoons parsley

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Rinse the chicken thighs under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels.

Step 3

In a small bowl, mix together olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, thyme, rosemary, paprika, salt, and black pepper to create a marinade.

Step 4

Rub the marinade evenly over the chicken thighs, ensuring they are well coated.

Step 5

Heat a large, oven-safe skillet over medium heat and melt the butter.

Step 6

Place the chicken thighs skin-side down in the skillet and sear them for 4-5 minutes, until the skin is golden brown. Flip the chicken and cook for an additional 2 minutes.

Step 7

Pour the chicken broth into the skillet, ensuring it surrounds the chicken but does not cover the skin.

Step 8

Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and roast for 35-40 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F (74°C).

Step 9

Once cooked, remove the skillet from the oven and let the chicken rest for 5 minutes.

Step 10

Sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley before serving. Pair with your favorite side dishes for a complete meal.
