Pat the chicken dry with paper towels. Mix the oil, garlic, paprika, lemon juice, lemon zest, rosemary, thyme, salt and black pepper and rub the mixture into the chicken.
💡Dry the chicken before seasoning so the mixture clings to the skin; a longer marinade gives deeper color and flavor.
2
Marinate the chicken in the mixture 30 minutes.
3
Preheat the oven to 200°C (390°F).
⚙ Preheating the OvenOven
💡Put things in the oven only once it's reached temperature, after the heating light has gone off: an oven that hasn't reached temperature changes baking times, and the bake burns outside or stays underbaked.
4
Arrange the chicken in the pan in a single layer, with space between the pieces.

5
Bake uncovered 40–45 minutes, until the skin is crisp and the juices run clear.

💡Check by the cue (until…), not just the clock: every oven bakes a little differently.
6
For the last few minutes, move under the oven broiler, until the skin is crisper.
