Description

Deliciously seasoned baked chicken thighs that are easy to prepare and packed with flavor.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 tablespoons paprika
  • 1 tablespoon onion powder
  • 1 tablespoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon oregano
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon pepper
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3 lb bone-in chicken thighs

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit. For easier cleanup, line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a small bowl, mix the paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, chili powder, oregano, salt, and pepper.
  3. Drizzle the olive oil over the chicken thighs and then sprinkle the thighs with the spices. If you’re not planning on eating the skin, sprinkle the spices under the skin.
  4. Place the chicken thighs on the baking sheet and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit.

Notes

  • For best results, allow the chicken to marinate with the spices for at least 30 minutes before cooking.
  • If you prefer crispy skin, ensure the skin is dry before seasoning.
