Ingredients
- 6 chicken thighs bone-in, skin-on
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- salt to taste
- black pepper to taste
- 2 prigs rosemary fresh
- 1 lemon thickly sliced
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 450°F.
- In a large 12" cast iron skillet, heat oil over high heat.
- Generously season chicken with salt & pepper. Place skin side down in the skillet. Cook 2 minutes and reduce heat to medium-high.
- Chop rosemary needles and sprinkle over chicken. Add lemon slices between thighs. Continue cooking on medium-high for 10 minutes.
- Place skillet into the preheated oven and cook an additional 12 minutes. Flip chicken over, skin side up and return to the oven for 5 minutes or until chicken is cooked through.
- Remove from oven, spoon juices over top and rest 5 minutes. Serve hot.
Notes
- Use a meat thermometer to check the thickest part of the thigh (away from the bone). It should read 165°F, but you can remove the chicken at 162°F since it will keep cooking as it rests.
- Store leftover skillet chicken thighs in the fridge for up to 4 days or freeze for up to 4 months.
