Place the chicken thighs skin-side up on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Drizzle lemon juice over the chicken thighs for added flavor.

Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, until the skin is crispy and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).

Remove from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
