Ingredients
- 6 pieces boneless chicken thighs with skin
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil for easy cleaning.
Step 2
In a small bowl, mix together olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, dried thyme, sea salt, and black pepper.
Step 3
Pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture. This helps achieve crispy skin.
Step 4
Rub the olive oil and spice mixture generously over each chicken thigh, ensuring they are well-coated.
Step 5
Place the chicken thighs skin-side up on the prepared baking sheet. Ensure they are spaced apart for even cooking.
Step 6
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the skin is crispy and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
Step 7
Remove the chicken from the oven and drizzle with fresh lemon juice for added flavor.
Step 8
Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving to allow the juices to redistribute.
Step 9
Serve warm and enjoy your Whole30 Crispy Baked Boneless Chicken Thighs with Skin!
