1-Preheat oven to 400°F and season chicken: Getting your Lemon Garlic Butter Chicken Thighs just right starts with a few easy steps that anyone can follow. Begin by preheating your oven to make sure everything cooks evenly and comes out juicy. This method keeps the flavors locked in for a meal that’s full of taste.

2-Preheat oven to 400°F and season chicken: First, pat the chicken thighs dry and season them with the sea salt, black pepper, and fresh oregano. This helps the skin crisp up nicely and lets the flavors soak in deep. Then, heat your clarified butter in a skillet over medium heat until it’s melted and ready to go.

3-Melt butter and cook garlic: Next, add the diced garlic and let it cook for a minute or so until it smells amazing, but don’t let it burn. This step brings out the garlic’s natural sweetness and pairs perfectly with the lemon zest you’ll add later.

4-Sear chicken skin-side down: After searing, pour in the dry white wine and add the lemon slices for a burst of citrus. Pop it in the oven and bake until the chicken reaches 165°F inside. For boneless versions, keep an eye on the time to avoid overcooking.

5-Rest and serve: Rest and serve. Let sit for 5 minutes.
