Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Garlic and Basil Roasted Chicken Thighs.
Step 1
Begin by preheating your oven to a cozy 375°F (190°C).
Step 2
Nestle the chicken thighs into a roasting pan, generously showering them with salt and pepper to enhance their flavor.
Step 3
Scatter the diced onion around the chicken, allowing its sweetness to mingle with the meat.
Step 4
Next, crown the chicken with vibrant chopped basil, aromatic sliced garlic, and fragrant finely chopped rosemary, creating a delightful herbaceous layer.
Step 5
Pour chicken broth into the pan, ensuring it envelops the chicken, and then artfully arrange the diced carrots around the thighs for a colorful touch.
Step 6
To lock in the moisture, cover the roasting pan tightly with aluminum foil.
Step 7
Slide the pan into the preheated oven and let it bake for about an hour, or until the chicken is cooked through, with no pink remaining at the bone and the juices running clear.
Step 8
For a golden finish, remove the foil and let the chicken bake for an additional 10 to 15 minutes, allowing it to develop a beautiful, crispy exterior.
Step 9
Enjoy the tantalizing aroma that fills your kitchen as this delicious dish comes to life.
