Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Place the oven rack in the middle position. Line a rimmed baking sheet or baking dish with parchment paper.
Trim the chicken skin and fat, leaving only enough to cover the thigh meat.
Add chicken to a large bowl; massage the lemon pepper seasoning, the non-flavored oil and 1 1/2 T. kosher salt into the chicken, making sure that it's evenly coating both the bottom and the top of each chicken piece.
Transfer chicken to the prepared baking sheet; sprinkle remaining 1/2 t. kosher salt over the tops of the skin.
Bake in the oven for about 1 hour or until chicken is tender, easily pierced with a fork and juices run clear.
Serve, sprinkled with chopped parsley and lemon slices .
