This lemon chicken recipe is all about juicy, tender, and golden-baked chicken thighs coated with the best lemon-herb Greek marinade. It’s quick to prep, easy to cook, and the results are fantastic!
If there is one chicken recipe I could live off of, it’s this Greek lemon chicken. I’m a sucker for skin-on chicken thighs given how naturally juicy and flavorful they are. Plus, I love how it’s virtually impossible to overcook chicken thighs in the oven. But this bright and herby lemon chicken marinade is what makes this dish so satisfying.

I love, love , love lemon anything❤😊❤😊😊❤
I took this and put it over a bed of potatoes tossed in oil, lemon juice, and nearly 10 cloves of garlic. The potatoes stole the show.
The process white goes through removes all the goodness from the rice so I use either Red or Black Wild rice as a healthier option.
1:00 mix the salt with the lemon juice (or water-based fluid likevinnager) first. Salt doesn't dissolve in oil.
I wonder if you sell a soft copy of your book? I don’t have access to any of the bookstores that sells it 🙏🏻
I love your recipes . Thank you so much for sharing! I will buy your recipe book. ❤
I encourage viewers to show this young lady some support and buy her recipe book. We need to value each other and her videos are superb and not easy to create all this .
My appreciation goes to you ❤❤❤
Thank you for adding degree Celsius for us Europeans 🙏❤️
This has become my GO TO dish to impress people haha. Everyone I make this for is blown away. Stunner.
Comment by both my children *(including the really picky one): This is the best thing you’ve ever made! I also made air fryer asparagus in lieu of green beans.
I made this yesterday and it was sooo good. The lemonsauce is perfect to poor over rice and gives the dish a fresh taste. Thank you for sharing 🙂
Yummy! So I want to make this using some bone in chicken breast because I bought a value pack and I don’t know what to do with it besides shredding it for recipes like tostadas or enchiladas 😅 Do you think it would turn out ok? Any tips? I usually do prefer to marinade and roast chicken thighs or a whole chicken but I gotta work with what I have because food is so expensive now a days 😩
Looks lovely ,just can't stand herbs are pronounced as 'erbs
1/3 cup of extra virgin olive
1/4 cup of lemon juice
4 garlic cloves
1 tbs oregano
2 ts thyme
2 ts dijon mustard
2 ts salt
1 ts pepper
Looks amazing did the chicken today but we don't cook with salt at all because there is already too much in our diet as it is without adding anything
Greek chicken with kosher salt 😂
Wow❤
Looks delicious ❤ I am making it tomorrow
Makes the chicken come to life rather than just roleplay like sheep
Sounds great!
Thank you! With all the different recipes that represent all types of American cuisine from our “melting pot” this is so simple and delicious! Have had it several times…
Thank you for the recipe. The rice paired nicely with the chicken, and I added side salad to the plate and it was a hit 👏🏻
Excellent! Greetings from Houston TX! 😎🎉
where o i get the bags you marinate in?
Why can't the Americans say the word "Herb" properly?! It has an H at the beginning for a reason… Can't watch the video and it's so annoying…
i always buy greek chicken at my favorite store already made i like it so much that i decided to make it for myself this is a great recipe thank you
Thank you for all these recipes. You make our lives so much easier and miles more interesting.
You’re so hot
I tried this recipe and it was delicious, my husband asked me to do more today, thank you. I also bought Lisa’s book, I can’t decide what to try next.
hmmm…
I’ll try this with skinless. Eating the skin is gross but that’s where all the spices and flavour are if you leave it on.
It’s 7:30 and this just popped up. I,m making this for breakfast forgot dinner!
This looks amazing! Going to make it in the week
It’s in the oven lol Trying it tonight!
Lemon rinds in the sauce? Will give an off putting flavor.
I dont like chicken thighs. Can I substitute chicken breasts
Made this 3 times now, love it 👊
The h in herb is not silent.
Simple is always better! I love Greek's approach to food – fresh, hearty, delicious!
I've been looking for a new chicken recipe. I will make this next week. You have earned yourself a subscriber.
Looks scrumptious!!
I'm a Pakistani and I love this dish, not only me, but my wife and kids too, made it myself twice at home and it's just an amazing tantalising food experience.❤
Can I use drumsticks
Oven at 350f does not work. It only boiled the chicken. Dinner took three times longer.
175 for chicken? That seems too much.
Made this tonight. Very good!!
Talking to fast
Nothing uniquely Greek about this other than the name?!
Haha eating that chicken with your hands is so cute! Thanks for the video👍🏻❤️
