1
Preheat the oven to 425°F.
2
In a small bowl, combine the kosher salt, freshly ground black pepper, garlic powder, lemon zest, and chopped fresh rosemary.
3
Add the lemon juice to the seasoning mixture and mix to create a paste.
4
Rub the seasoning paste evenly onto both sides of the chicken thighs.
5
Heat the vegetable oil in a large cast-iron skillet over high heat until hot but not smoking.
6
Place the chicken thighs, skin side down, and cook for 2 minutes.
7
Reduce the heat to medium-high and continue cooking the chicken with the skin side down until the fat renders and it is golden brown, about 5 minutes.
8
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and cook for 6 minutes with the skin side down.
9
Flip the chicken thighs so the skin side is facing up, and cook until the skin is crisp and a thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the chicken thigh registers at least 165°F, approximately 5 more minutes.
10
Remove the skillet from the oven, transfer the chicken thighs to a plate, and let rest for 5 minutes before serving.
