Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels and set them aside.
In a small bowl, mix Lawry's seasoned salt, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and ground black pepper to create a dry rub.
Rub the seasoning mixture evenly over both sides of the chicken thighs, making sure to coat them thoroughly.
Heat olive oil in a large, oven-safe skillet over medium heat.
Place the chicken thighs skin-side down in the skillet and sear for 4-5 minutes until the skin is golden and crispy. Flip and sear the other side for an additional 3-4 minutes.
Remove the chicken from the skillet temporarily and set aside. Carefully remove excess grease from the pan, leaving about 1 tablespoon.
Melt the butter in the skillet, then pour in the chicken broth, scraping the bottom of the pan to deglaze it and incorporate any browned bits.
Return the chicken thighs to the skillet, skin-side up.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 25 minutes or until the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F (74°C).
Carefully remove the skillet from the oven and let the chicken rest for 5 minutes.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley, if desired, and serve warm alongside your favorite side dishes.
