To make this dish, you'll need the following ingredients:
- 4 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/4 cup chicken broth
- 1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
- Lemon wedges, for serving
To start, preheat your oven to 375 degrees F. In a shallow dish, combine the flour, garlic powder, onion powder, thyme, oregano, salt, and pepper. Dredge the chicken thighs in the flour mixture, shaking off any excess.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken thighs and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, until golden brown. Transfer the chicken to a baking dish and bake for 20-25 minutes, until cooked through.
While the chicken is baking, make the lemon herb sauce. In the same skillet you used to cook the chicken, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook for 1-2 minutes, until fragrant. Add the chicken broth and lemon juice, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Bring the sauce to a simmer and cook for 2-3 minutes, until slightly thickened. Stir in the parsley.
To serve, spoon the lemon herb sauce over the chicken thighs and garnish with lemon wedges. This dish is perfect with a side of roasted vegetables or a simple salad.
