Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels. This helps to achieve a crispy skin when cooking.

  2. 2

    Season the Chicken

    In a bowl, mix the olive oil, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, salt, and black pepper. Rub this mixture all over the chicken thighs, ensuring they are well coated.

  3. 3

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). This ensures that the chicken will cook evenly.

  4. 4

    Arrange Chicken in Baking Dish

    Place the seasoned chicken thighs in a baking dish. Squeeze the lemon juice over the chicken and place the lemon halves in the dish for added flavor.

  5. 5

    Bake the Chicken

    Bake the chicken in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and the skin is golden brown.

  6. 6

    Rest and Serve

    Remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving. This allows the juices to redistribute.
