How to cook deliciously - Baked Chicken Thighs

1. Stage

Preheat oven to 425°. Pat chicken thighs dry with paper towel and season all over with salt and pepper.

2. Stage

In a medium bowl stir together butter, garlic, lemon zest, and thyme. Rub butter mixture all over chicken thighs, including under the skin.

3. Stage

Place lemon rounds, potatoes, and chicken thighs in a 9"-x-13" baking dish and bake until thighs register 160°F on an instant-read thermometer, about 35 minutes. If you'd like the skin more crisp, broil on high for 1 to 2 minutes until golden. Garnish with parsley before serving, if desired.
