These are so flavorful, and that crispy skin...oh, so delicious! They're also cheap and easy. Try it, it'll become a favorite! I know it says 5 servings, but I always eat two, so plan accordingly. There's plenty of marinade to throw in more chicken. If not, add more soy sauce. It's hard to mess this up.

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 9

6 chicken thighs (bone-in, skin-on)
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 teaspoons ground paprika

Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken thighs: Look for thighs that are plump and have a good amount of meat on them. Avoid thighs that are too skinny or have a lot of visible fat.
  • Dry the chicken thighs thoroughly: This will help the skin crisp up in the oven. You can pat them dry with paper towels or use a salad spinner to remove excess moisture.
  • Season the chicken thighs liberally: Use a combination of salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika. You can also add other herbs and spices to taste.
  • Roast the chicken thighs at a high temperature: This will help the skin crisp up and the meat cook through quickly. Aim for a temperature of 425 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Roast the chicken thighs for 30-35 minutes, or until the skin is golden brown and the meat is cooked through: You can check the internal temperature of the chicken thighs with a meat thermometer to make sure they have reached 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Let the chicken thighs rest for 5-10 minutes before serving: This will help the juices redistribute throughout the meat, making it more tender and flavorful.

Conclusion:

Crispy oven-baked chicken thighs are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for any occasion. By following these tips, you can make sure your chicken thighs turn out perfect every time. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy weeknight meal, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
