Ingredients:
- 4 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon salt (adjust to taste)
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- Olive oil (for drizzling)
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a small bowl, mix together the garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, dried thyme, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper to create the seasoning blend.
- Pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels. This helps ensure crispy skin during baking.
- Place the chicken thighs on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
- Drizzle olive oil over the chicken thighs to help the seasoning adhere. Use your hands to rub the oil evenly over each piece.
- Sprinkle the seasoning blend generously over both sides of each chicken thigh, ensuring even coverage.
- Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 35-40 minutes or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and the skin is golden and crispy.
- Once done, remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before serving.
- Serve the Baked Chicken Thighs with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a fresh salad.
