He requested for seconds! Proper there, you understand it’s going to be an incredible hen dish. The hen was moist and flavorful, tomatoes made it saucy, olives and cheese had been salty and briny, and herbs and lemon brightened all of it up. Plus, all of it got here collectively in fewer than quarter-hour.
Though the tomatoes made it saucy sufficient, I did squeeze the roasted lemons atop the completed dish, which added some zing.
Throughout prep, I chopped the oregano and thyme after inserting the opposite components within the roasting pan, then sprinkled them over prime, earlier than inserting the dish within the oven. This saved dirtying an additional bowl.
Because it’s solely the 2 of us, I bought a smaller package deal of hen thighs (2.25 lbs, which was 4 thighs.) Served it with mashed potatoes, inexperienced peas, and do-it-yourself scallion cheese bread. A scrumptious meal. I’d make this once more.
