Prepared in the oven, this chicken thighs recipe has seasoned crispy skin and tender juicy meat! While this is a simple baked chicken thighs recipe it’s packed with flavor.
It’s super easy to make and needs just a few minutes of prep. Since chicken thighs are dark meat, they’re extra tender and flavorful.
Ingredients for Baked Chicken Thighs
Chicken Thighs: This recipe uses bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs. The bone keeps the thighs nice and juicy while the skin is crispy and delicious. Oil: A little bit of olive oil helps the seasoning to stick to the skin and makes the skin extra crispy. Seasoning: I love homemade chicken seasoning on these baked thighs. It’s a simple blend of spices like paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder along with dried herbs. Any type of pre-made chicken seasoning will work (check the spice aisle at the store) so choose your favorite flavor.
