EASY DINNER

Ingredients
  

  • Ingredients:
  • - 4 bone-in skin-on chicken thighs
  • - 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • - 1 lemon juiced and zested
  • - 4 cloves garlic minced
  • - 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • - 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • - Salt and pepper to taste
  • - 1 red bell pepper sliced
  • - 1 zucchini sliced
  • - 1 cup cherry tomatoes
  • - Fresh parsley for garnish optional

Instructions
 

  • Cooking Instructions:
  • In a large bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, minced garlic, dried oregano, dried thyme, salt, and pepper.
  • Add the chicken thighs to the marinade, ensuring they're well coated. Allow them to marinate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours in the refrigerator for more flavor.
  • Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). While the oven is heating, prepare the vegetables by slicing the bell pepper and zucchini, and rinsing the cherry tomatoes.
  • Arrange the marinated chicken thighs in a large oven-safe skillet or baking dish, skin side up.
  • Surround the chicken with the sliced bell pepper, zucchini, and cherry tomatoes, drizzling any remaining marinade over the vegetables.
  • Roast the chicken and vegetables in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the skin is crispy (internal temperature should reach 165°F/74°C).
  • Once cooked, remove the dish from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes.
  • Garnish with fresh parsley if desired before serving.
  • For extra tips, consider using any seasonal vegetables you have on hand to customize this dish.
  • Carrots, asparagus, or broccoli would also work well. Additionally, if you prefer a little spice, feel free to add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the marinade for an extra kick.
