In a small dish, combine the olive oil, lemon juice, thyme and parsley.
Brush with some of the oil mixture and bake at 400,° brushing occasionally and bake until the chicken is cooked, approximately 25-30 minutes total cooking time.
Serve the chicken garnished with parsley sprigs and any remaining lemon slices.
