Roasted Greek Chicken Thighs

This easy roasted Greek chicken thighs recipe smelled fantastic while they roasted and tasted flavorful & delicious. My kids both loved how tasty the chicken was, and my husband and I agreed. I used my Greek seasoning blend to season the chicken, and it made them so flavorful. I served these roasted Greek chicken thighs with mashed potatoes and browned-butter broccoli with mizithra for a healthy, delicious meal that my entire family devoured.

Roasted Greek Chicken Thighs

Ingredients:

• Greek seasoning blend, to taste
• Sea salt and freshly cracked pepper, to taste
• 5 chicken thighs, bone-in and skin-on
• 1 tbsp olive oil

How to Make Roasted Greek Chicken Thighs:

Make the Greek seasoning blend.

Season both sides of the chicken thighs with the seasoning blend, to taste.

Season both sides with sea salt and freshly cracked pepper to taste.   Side Note: If time permits, season the chicken and refrigerate uncovered for 2-3 hours before cooking. Remove the chicken from the fridge 30 minutes before cooking.

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.

Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil (or butter) in a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Place directly in the HOT skillet, skin-side down, and cook for 4 minutes, or until the skin is golden brown and flips easily.

Flip the chicken and place it into the preheated oven. Roast for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.

Remove the skillet from the oven and use tongs to move the chicken to a serving plate.

Serve the chicken thighs with fresh lemon on the side. Serve immediately. Enjoy.
