Crispy Baked Chicken Thighs

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Crispy Baked Chicken Thighs.

1. Step 1

   Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C).

2. Step 2

   While the oven warms up, grab a baking sheet and line it with aluminum foil for easy cleanup, then give it a light spray of cooking spray to prevent sticking.

3. Step 3

   Now, take your chicken thighs and place them on the prepared baking sheet, making sure the skin side is facing up to achieve that perfect crispy finish.

4. Step 4

   In a small bowl, combine garlic salt, onion salt, oregano, thyme, paprika, and black pepper.

5. Step 5

   Mix these flavorful spices together until they’re well blended.

6. Step 6

   Once your spice mix is ready, generously sprinkle it over the chicken thighs, ensuring each piece is evenly coated for maximum flavor.

7. Step 7

   Pop the baking sheet into the preheated oven and let the chicken bake for about an hour.

8. Step 8

   You’ll know it’s done when the skin is beautifully crispy, the meat is no longer pink at the bone, and the juices run clear.

9. Step 9

   For an extra assurance, an instant-read thermometer should show 165°F (74°C) when inserted near the bone.

10. Step 10

    When the timer goes off, carefully remove the chicken from the oven and let the delicious aroma fill your kitchen.
