Preparing Lemon Garlic Chicken Thighs is simple when you follow these easy steps:

1. Prepare the Marinade: In a medium bowl, whisk together olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, lemon zest, oregano, thyme, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
2. Marinate the Chicken: Place the chicken thighs in a large resealable bag or shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring all pieces are well coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish, then refrigerate for at least 30 minutes (up to 2 hours for more flavor).
3. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
4. Arrange the Chicken: Remove the chicken from the marinade and place it skin-side up on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or in a baking dish. Discard the leftover marinade.
5. Bake: Roast the chicken in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C) and the skin is golden brown and crispy.
6. Rest the Chicken: Remove from the oven and let the chicken rest for 5-10 minutes before serving. This helps retain the juices.
7. Garnish: If desired, sprinkle fresh parsley over the top for a pop of color and freshness.

The step-by-step instructions ensure that you achieve perfectly roasted lemon garlic chicken thighs every time!
