This pan-seared Greek Chicken Thighs recipe is a super fast and easy weeknight dinner idea that doubles as a meal prep for lunch. A quick and flavorful marinade with olive oil, lemon, garlic, and oregano makes this chicken so flavourful! Spruce up your ordinary chicken thighs with this recipe!
Coat the chicken thighs with olive oil, garlic powder, lemon juice, dried oregano, salt, and pepper. Marinate for 30 minutes if you have the time.
On medium heat, heat up your skillet with 1-2 tbsp of olive oil before adding in the chicken thighs, smooth side down, and then cook for 5 minutes.
Flip and continue to cook for 6 to 7 minutes, or until cooked through. Do not overcrowd the pan, cook in two batches if necessary. Be sure to add more oil for the second batch.
Serve with some lemon slices as garnish if you wish.
