  1. 1

    In a small bowl, combine (3 tbsp) olive oil, the juice of (2) lemons, (3 cloves) minced garlic, (1 tbsp) chopped thyme, (1 tbsp) chopped rosemary, (1 tsp) salt, and (1/2 tsp) black pepper to create the marinade.

    After marinating, remove the chicken from the fridge and arrange it in a baking dish. Surround the chicken with the prepared vegetables.

  6. 6

    Bake in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74 °C), and the vegetables are tender.
