INGREDIENTS
2 skinless boneless chicken thighs (~300g)
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 lemon, juiced and zested
3 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
PREPARATION
Pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels and season them with salt and black pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Add the chicken thighs to the skillet, skin-side down if applicable, and sear until golden and crispy, about 5-7 minutes per side.
While the chicken sears, combine the juice and zest of the lemon with the minced garlic.
Once the chicken is nearly cooked through, reduce the heat to medium-low and pour the lemon garlic mixture over the thighs, allowing the flavors to meld for an additional 2-3 minutes.
Remove the chicken from the skillet and let it rest for a minute, then garnish with freshly chopped parsley.
Serve immediately and enjoy the crispy, zesty flavor.
