Ingredients

• 4 tablespoons butter , divided
• 4 cloves garlic
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 0.25 teaspoons onion powder
• 4 , 8 ounce
• salt and ground black pepper to taste
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley , chopped

Instructions

1. 1 Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
2. 2 Place 3 tablespoons butter in a microwave-safe bowl and heat in a microwave oven until melted, 1 to 2 minutes. Smash garlic cloves with the side of a chef's knife and add garlic to the warm butter. Stir in lemon juice and onion powder; set aside.
3. 3 Sprinkle both sides of chicken thighs with salt and pepper. Heat remaining 1 tablespoon butter in a medium oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Brown chicken, skin-side down, for 3 to 4 minutes. Flip chicken over and brush skin with lemon-butter mixture. Pour remaining butter mixture into skillet and remove from heat.
4. 4 Bake in the preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, about 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Brush skin every 10 minutes with pan juices.
5. 5 Remove skillet from the oven and place chicken on a serving platter. Drizzle chicken with pan juices and garnish with parsley.
