Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels.
  3. In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
  4. Rub the seasoning mixture all over the chicken thighs, ensuring they are evenly coated.
  5. Place the chicken thighs on a baking sheet.

Notes

  • For crispier skin, you can broil the chicken for the last 2-3 minutes of cooking, watching carefully to prevent burning.
  • Feel free to add your favorite herbs or spices to the seasoning mix.
