Ingredients
  

For the Chicken Thighs

  • 8 pieces Chicken thighs (Bone-in, skin-on for maximum flavor)
  • 2 tablespoons Olive oil (For coating and moisture)
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic powder (Adds savory depth)
  • 1 teaspoon Onion powder (For sweet, aromatic base)
  • 1 teaspoon Paprika (Provides color and mild sweetness)
  • 1/2 teaspoon Dried thyme (Earthy, herbaceous notes)
  • 1/2 teaspoon Dried rosemary (Pine-like aroma, pairs perfectly)
  • 1 teaspoon Salt (Enhances all flavors)
  • 1/2 teaspoon Black pepper (Adds subtle heat and complexity)
  • 1/2 teaspoon Smoked paprika (Optional but adds smoky depth)

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels, inside and out.
  • Drizzle olive oil over each thigh and rub thoroughly, getting under the skin where possible.
  • Mix all spices (garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, thyme, rosemary, salt, pepper, smoked paprika) in a small bowl.
  • Sprinkle the spice mix evenly over both sides of the thighs, pressing gently to help those flavors cling on.
  • Place seasoned thighs skin-side up on a rimmed baking sheet lined with parchment paper, keeping space between them.

Cooking

  • Preheat your oven to 425°F and roast the baking sheet on the middle rack for 35-40 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
  • Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes after removing from the oven, then serve immediately.

Notes

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days, or freeze for up to three months. Reheat in the microwave or stovetop.
