Ingredients
Steps
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200 °C) (200°C (400 °F)).
In a bowl, combine the chicken thighs with olive oil, garlic powder, lemon pepper, black pepper, crushed red pepper, onion powder, and the juice of half a lemon. Toss well to coat and let marinate briefly.
Place the marinated chicken into an oven-safe baking dish. Arrange the lemon slices around the chicken pieces.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40 minutes.
Switch the oven to broil on low. Use a spoon to scoop the pan juices and baste the chicken, then broil for 5 minutes or until the skin is golden brown and crispy.
Remove from the oven, garnish with fresh chopped parsley, and serve.
Notes
Ensure you baste the chicken during the broiling step to achieve an even, golden color and to keep the meat moist.
