Mga Sangkap

Mga Serving:
4
  • 120 ml lemon juice
  • 54 g olive oil
  • 6 garlic cloves, pressed
  • 15 ml dried oregano
  • 5 ml Italian seasoning
  • 5 ml freshly ground black pepper
  • 10 ml kosher salt
  • 1.8 kg skin-on, bone-in chicken thighs

Mga Tagubilin

  1. 1

    Combine the lemon juice, olive oil, garlic, oregano, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper in a large resealable bag. Add the chicken and toss to coat. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or overnight.

  2. 2

    Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).

  3. 3

    Remove the chicken pieces, dry them with paper towels, and place them on an aluminium foil-lined baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven for 30–40 minutes until cooked through. I recommend cooking to an internal temperature of 180°F (82°C)—at this temperature, the connective tissue found in a thigh breaks down nicely to make your chicken tender yet juicy.

  4. 4

    Broil the chicken on high for about 3 minutes until it is a nice golden brown. Serve with lemon wedges and enjoy!

FAQ

Can you make Greek lemon chicken ahead of time?+
Yes! You can marinate the chicken for up to 24 hours in the refrigerator, which actually makes the flavors even better. The cooked chicken also keeps well in an airtight container for 3-4 days and reheats beautifully in a 350°F oven for about 15 minutes.
What can I substitute if I don't have dried oregano?+
You can use fresh oregano (use about 3 times the amount), or swap in dried Mediterranean herbs, dried basil, or even increase the Italian seasoning. The flavor will be slightly different but still delicious.
Why is my chicken skin not crispy?+
Make sure to pat the chicken completely dry with paper towels before baking—excess moisture from the marinade is the main culprit. Baking at 425°F and placing the chicken skin-side up on a foil-lined pan will help it crisp up nicely.
What should I serve with Greek lemon chicken?+
It pairs perfectly with roasted vegetables like potatoes and zucchini, a simple Greek salad, creamy tzatziki sauce, or fluffy rice to soak up the lemony pan juices.
