Garlic Butter Baked Chicken Thighs Recipe

Prep Time: 15 mins

Total Time: 50 mins

Yields: 6 servings

 

 

Ingredients:

• 3 lb. (6-8) bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
• Kosher salt
• Freshly ground black pepper
• 1/2 c. (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
• 5 cloves garlic, minced
• Zest of 1 lemon
• 1 tbsp. fresh thyme leaves
• 1 lemon, cut into rounds
• 1 lb. baby potatoes, quartered
• 1 tbsp. freshly chopped parsley, for garnish

 

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 425°. Pat chicken thighs dry with paper towel and season all over with salt and pepper.
2. In a medium bowl stir together butter, garlic, lemon zest, and thyme. Rub butter mixture all over chicken thighs, including under the skin.
3. Place lemon rounds, potatoes, and chicken thighs in a 9"-x-13" baking dish and bake until thighs register 160°F on an instant-read thermometer, about 35 minutes. If you'd like the skin more crisp, broil on high for 1 to 2 minutes until golden.
