Lemon-Garlic Chicken Thighs

A quick marinade in soy sauce, garlic and lemon juice adds a rich flavor to chicken thighs.

Ingredients

  • 6 bone-in chicken thighs
  • 1/8 cup vegetable oil
  • 1/4 cup lemon juice
  • 1/2 tsp oregano
  • 1/4 - 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce

Instructions

  • Soak the chicken pieces in salted water for 20 minutes (or just rinse if you're in a hurry), then pat the pieces dry and lay them in a baking dish. They should be a bit crowded, touching each other.
  • Mix up the rest of the ingredients and pour over the chicken, then let stand for 20 minutes. Bake at 400 degrees for 45 minutes.
  • Turn off the oven, cover the pan, and let the chicken sit for 15 minutes before serving.
