Chicken part(s)

Step by step

1
Place the thighs skin side up in an oven safe skillet and season with the salt and pepper; set aside.
2
In a small bowl combine the olive oil, fresh oregano, garlic and the juice from 1 lemon. Stir to combine. Pour over the chicken thighs.
3
Slice the remaining lemon and scatter the slices around and on top of the thighs. Dot the butter on top of the lemon pieces.
4
Bake the chicken at 400°F (200°C) until cooked through, about 40 minutes, or until internal temperature has reached 165°F (74°C).
5
During the last 10 minutes of cooking, start the couscous. In a small pot bring the chicken broth to a boil. Add the couscous, turn the heat off and cover. Let the couscous stand for 8 minutes and fluff with a fork.
6
When the chicken comes out of the oven, sprinkle it with the fresh thyme. Serve immediately, with juices over a bed of couscous.
