  1. In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, minced garlic, dried oregano, and dried thyme. Mix well to create the marinade.
  2. Season the chicken thighs with salt and pepper, then add them to the marinade. Toss to coat thoroughly. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or up to overnight for best results.
  3. Preheat your oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C).
  4. Place the marinated chicken thighs in a baking dish, skin-side up. Arrange the sliced olives around the chicken.
  5. Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165Β°F (74Β°C). The skin should be golden and crispy.
  6. Remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before serving. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley.
  7. Serve the lemon-infused olive chicken with your choice of sides, such as roasted vegetables, a fresh salad, or rice.
