Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
• 4 skin-on chicken drumsticks (about 1 pound)
• 4 skin-on, bone-in chicken thighs (about 1 1/2 pounds)
• Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
• 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 12 cloves garlic (about 1 head)
• 2 lemons (finely grated zest of one, juice of both)
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Heat the olive oil in a large nonstick ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Sprinkle the chicken with 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper, and 2 tablespoons flour. Add to the skillet and cook, turning, until slightly golden on all sides, about 5 minutes.

2. Add the garlic, lemon zest and lemon juice and turn the chicken to coat.

3. Transfer the skillet to the oven; roast until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through, about 20 minutes.

4. Divide the chicken among plates and drizzle with the pan juices.
