Skillet Chicken Thighs with Lemon and Herbs

image

This is a simple recipe for a weeknight meal. You can serve it with some arugula with radishes and lemon juice like I did, or some steamed green beans or asparagus. It’s pretty quick and doesn’t require a lot of ingredients, and it makes moist chicken with delicious crispy skin.
