2. To prepare chicken, preheat oven to 450F. Coat a large wire rack and shallow baking sheet with cooking spray.
3. Combine basil, mint, dill, oil, garlic, and lemon zind and juice in a large bowl. Add chicken; toss well to coat. Arrange chicken in a single layer on baking sheet; sprinkle with salt and pepper.

Roast thighs 35 to 45 minutes or until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh registers 180F. Serve immediately or at room temperature, accompanied by lemon wedges and Yogurt Dill Sauce. Serves 6.
