Ingredients:

• 4 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs (or breasts)
• 3 tbsp olive oil
• 3 tbsp fresh lemon juice
• 1 tbsp lemon zest
• 3 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 tsp dried oregano
• 1/2 tsp dried thyme
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/2 tsp black pepper
• 1/2 tsp paprika (optional for color)
• 1/2 cup chicken broth

Instructions:

1. Marinate the chicken:

   • In a bowl, mix olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, garlic, oregano, thyme, salt, pepper, and paprika.

   • Sear the chicken, skin-side down, until golden brown (about 4-5 minutes). Flip and cook for another 3 minutes.

3. Bake the chicken:

   • Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
   • Transfer the chicken to a baking dish. Pour in the chicken broth and add butter.
   • Bake uncovered for 25-30 minutes (until internal temp reaches 165°F).

4. Serve:

   • Garnish with fresh parsley and lemon slices. Serve with rice, roasted potatoes, or a Greek salad.
