Ingredients

Chicken
Garlic
2 tbsp butter
1 lemon

Method

PREP

Season 4 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs (about 6 oz each) with salt, 2 minced garlic cloves, 1 tsp oregano, and the zest of 1 lemon; pat the skin dry.

COOKING

Sear skin-side down in 2 tbsp butter over medium-high 5 minutes until deep golden and released, then flip.
Add the juice of the lemon and 1 tbsp butter and transfer to a 400F oven; roast 18 to 20 minutes to 165F and crisp skin.

FINISH

Spoon the pan juices over and serve. Serves 2 — two thighs per serving.

💡 Pro-Tip: Do not move the thighs until the skin releases on its own — forcing them early tears the skin and loses the crisp.
