Fremgangsmåde

Trin for trin

1
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).
Ca. 5 min.
2
In a small bowl, combine the dried oregano, salt, and pepper.
Ca. 1 min.
3
Pat the chicken pieces dry and rub the spice mixture evenly over all sides of each piece.
Ca. 2 min.
Kokkens note: Patting the chicken dry helps the skin get crispy during baking.
4
Arrange the seasoned chicken in a single layer in a 9x13-inch (23x33 cm) baking dish.
Ca. 1 min.
5
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil and fresh lemon juice, then pour it evenly over the chicken in the dish.
Ca. 1 min.
6
Bake for 40 minutes, or until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through, with an internal temperature of 74°C (165°F).
Ca. 40 min.
Kokkens note: You can baste the chicken with the pan juices halfway through baking for extra flavor.
7
Remove the dish from the oven and let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Ca. 5 min.
Kokkens note: Resting allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in more tender meat.
