Chicken Oraganato!

I made this the other night, and both kids cleaned their plates. I used organic, boneless/skinless chicken thighs from Costco, but I have also used chicken breasts to make it as well. Super yummy :) It is also good to make it earlier in the day, and let the spices flavor it during the day. And then right before you stick it in the oven for dinner, pour the olive oil and lemon juice mixture over it. Sometimes I like to prepare dinner early, and then in the evening, all I have to do is stick it in the oven.


  • 7 chicken thighs
  • 2 teaspoons dried oregano
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1/2 lemon, juiced

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
  2. Wash chicken well and pat dry. Mix oregano with salt and pepper to taste. Rub well over all of the chicken pieces. Put chicken in a greased 9x13 inch baking dish.
  3. Whisk the oil with the lemon juice and drizzle half over the chicken. Bake in preheated oven for 15 minutes. Turn the chicken pieces and drizzle with the remaining oil/lemon mixture. Bake for another 15 to 20 minutes. Serve warm, cold or at room temperature!
