- Preheat the oven to 350°F (180 C).
- Place the olive oil and chicken pieces into a large bowl.
- Add the thyme sprigs (run your fingers along the stalks to remove the leaves) and the lemon juice, zest, and salt.
- Use clean hands to mix everything well, massaging the flavors into the chicken.
- Place a pan over high heat and when hot, place the chicken pieces into the hot pan skin-side down.
- Cook until the skin is crispy, then use tongs to turn the chicken over, cooking the underside for 1 more minute.
- Remove the pan from the heat.
- Add the garlic and lemon slices to the pan, coating everything in the rendered fat and juice.
- Place everything (chicken skin-side up) into an oven-proof dish.
- Place in the oven for 20-25 minutes or until the chicken has cooked through.
- Serve garnished with a scattering of fresh thyme leaves and serve with any side dishes of your choice and season with more salt, if needed.
