Ingredients
  

  • 4 Bone-in skin-on chicken thighs
  • 1/4 cup Extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 tbsp Garlic powder
  • 2 tsp Simply Organic brand All-Seasons Salt
  • 1 tsp Onion powder
  • 1 tsp Smoked paprika
  • 1/4 tsp Cayenne pepper
  • 1/4 tsp Black pepper

Instructions
 

For detailed instructions with photos, scroll down to the section just below this one, titled "How to make Crispy Chicken Thighs"

  • Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Put all the seasonings and 1/4 cup Extra-virgin olive oil in a baking dish and mix them together.
  • Mix the 4 Bone-in skin-on chicken thighs with the seasonings, getting the marinade in every crevice of the chicken thighs. I highly recommend you check out the full instructions section below to see how to rub the marinade into the chicken properly.
  • Lay the chicken out in the pan, skin side up and flesh side down. Lay the skin all the way out so it's not tucked underneath the chicken thighs or touching the other chicken thighs.
  • Put the chicken in the preheated oven for 50 minutes or until the internal temperature reads 165 degrees F. Remove them after 50 minutes or until the internal temp reaches 165 degrees F.
