Ingredients

• 4 pounds Bone-in chicken parts (e.g., thighs, drumsticks, breasts)
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Fresh rosemary
• 2 tablespoons Fresh thyme
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
• 4 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
• 1 whole Lemon, zested and juiced
• 2 teaspoons Salt
• 1 teaspoon Black pepper, freshly ground
• 1 teaspoon Paprika

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease with olive oil.

Step 2

Pat the chicken parts dry with paper towels and place them in a large mixing bowl.

Step 3

In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, rosemary, thyme, parsley, minced garlic, lemon zest, lemon juice, salt, black pepper, and paprika. Mix well to form a herb marinade.

Step 4

Pour the herb marinade over the chicken parts and use your hands to evenly coat each piece. Ensure that the marinade gets under the skin for maximum flavor.

Step 5

Arrange the chicken parts on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer, leaving space between each piece for even cooking.

Step 6

Roast in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F (74°C) when checked with a meat thermometer.

Step 7

If desired, broil the chicken for an additional 2-3 minutes to achieve crispy golden skin.

Step 8

Remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with additional fresh herbs if desired.
