Ingredients
- 6 pieces Boneless chicken thighs with skin
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Dried thyme
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with aluminum foil for easier cleanup.
Step 2
Pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels, ensuring they are completely dry to help achieve a crispy skin.
Step 3
In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, black pepper, and dried thyme to form a paste.
Step 4
Rub the spice mixture evenly over the chicken thighs, making sure to cover both the skin and the underside.
Step 5
Place the chicken thighs skin-side up on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each piece to allow for even cooking.
Step 6
Bake in the preheated oven for 40 to 45 minutes, or until the skin is golden brown and crispy, and the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F (74°C).
Step 7
Remove the chicken thighs from the oven and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Step 8
Serve with your choice of low-carb sides, such as a fresh green salad or roasted vegetables.
