     Title: 3-Ingredient Lemon Chicken
Categories: Five, Poultry, Citrus, Vegetables
     Yield: 4 Servings

     4    Chicken thighs (6 oz ea);
          - bone-in, skin-on
 1 1/2 ts Kosher salt
     1 lg Lemon; sliced 1/8", seeded
     4 cl Garlic; peeled, crushed
     3 tb Olive oil; divided

 Season the chicken liberally with salt on both sides. Set aside at
 room temperature while you prep everything else (at least
 15 minutes). Set the oven to 450 F/232 C and move a rack to the
 middle of the oven.

 Add the sliced lemon, garlic, and 2 tb of olive oil to a 9x13"
 baking dish or rimmed baking sheet and toss to combine. Firmly
 press paper towels to the skin side of the salted thighs to remove
 any liquid on the surface, then transfer to the baking dish and
 pull any skin from underneath the chicken to the sides so that it
 can get crispy. Drizzle the chicken with the remaining olive oil
 and use your fingers to make sure the oil coats all the skin evenly.

 Bake until the chicken thighs are cooked through, the skin is
 golden brown and crispy and the lemons are softened, about
 45 minutes. If the chicken is cooked but the skin isn't crispy yet,
 broil until the skin is your desired color.

 Remove from the oven and let sit for about 5 minutes before
 serving, spooning plenty of the softened lemons, garlic, and sauce
 onto the plate with each chicken thigh.

 Notes: (How to play around with this recipe)

 Use Boneless Chicken:

 You can use boneless, skin-on chicken thighs for this recipe; the
 cooking time will be approximately the same. I would not recommend
 using skinless cuts here, as the crispy texture of the skin is a
 key component

 Add Herbs To The Mix:

 A few sprigs of thyme or rosemary would be particularly well-suited
 here

 Vary The Citrus:

 Add in thin slices of a deseeded orange or Meyer lemon

 Add Alliums:

 Thinly sliced onion, scallions, or even leeks would play nicely
 with the flavors here

 Spice It Up:

 Add chile flakes to the lemon mixture or season the chicken thighs
 with a pinch of smoked paprika, cayenne, or your favorite seasoning

 Sweeten It:

 Mix a drizzle of honey or a pinch of sugar into the lemons before
 roasting to cut some of the bitter and sour notes of the lemon
 skin.
