Greek Style Chicken Thighs
What You’ll Need:
1.5 lbs bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs (~4 thighs)
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
juice from 1/2 large lemon
1 tablespoon minced garlic (~1-2 cloves)
1 teaspoon dried oregano leaves
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon paprika
pinch of red pepper flakes
The Method:
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
Mix the extra-virgin olive oil, lemon juice, and spices in a small bowl. Place the chicken thighs in a shallow dish.
Pour the marinade over the chicken thighs and evenly coat. Let marinate for at least 15 minutes.
Place a large, shallow, oven-safe pan on medium-high heat.
Once hot, add the chicken(skin side down) and pour over the marinade.
Cook the chicken on each side for about 4-5 minutes.
Place the chicken thighs skin side up and put the entire pan in the pre-heated oven for 35-40 minutes.
Remove from oven and let cool. Just before serving squeeze some lemon on top and sprinkle some dried oregano.
