1-Start with preheating your oven to 425°F (220°C), which is ideal for getting that crispy skin on your herb roasted chicken thighs. First, pat the 4 chicken thighs with bone and skin dry using paper towels to help them roast evenly and achieve a golden finish. In a bowl, mix together the 4 to 5 peeled garlic cloves slightly pressed, 1/2 teaspoon chopped sage, 3/4 teaspoon chopped rosemary, 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder, and salt and black pepper to taste for a flavorful coating.

2-Next, toss the chicken thighs in this herb mixture until they’re fully covered, letting the flavors sink in. Arrange them skin-side up on a baking tray lined with parchment paper, making sure there’s space between each piece for proper airflow. Roast for 30-40 minutes, checking that the internal temperature hits 165°F for juicy, safe results.

3-If you want to add variety, consider optional steps like including your favorite vegetables on the tray. For instance, this method pairs well with sides from our site, such as a refreshing strawberry milkshake for a fun twist after dinner. Once done, let the chicken rest for a few minutes to lock in the juices before serving with veggies or a simple salad.
