Step 1
Preheat oven to 425°F. Pat the 6 chicken thighs dry and season all over with 1 tsp salt and 1 tbsp dried oregano.
Step 2
Slice the lemon into thin rounds. Arrange the chicken in a baking dish, tuck lemon slices between and on top, and scatter 1/2 cup raisins around.
Step 3
Drizzle everything with 2 tbsp olive oil. Roast until the chicken is golden and cooked through (juices run clear), about 35–40 minutes.
Step 4
Spoon the pan juices over the chicken before serving. Add black pepper or fresh herbs if you like.
