Ingredients
- 8 Chicken Thighs Skin-on
- 1 ½ tbsp baking powder
- 2 ½ tsp salt
- 2 tsp garlic powder
- 3 tsp paprika
- 1 ½ tsp black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 F using the convection setting.
- Trim off excess fat from chicken thighs and pat dry using paper towels.
- Add baking powder, salt, garlic powder, paprika and black pepper to a large resealable plastic bag or container and shake to mix.
- Next, add the chicken thighs one at a time to the bag or container and seal tightly. Shake well and coat the chicken thighs in the spice mixture.
- Place an oven-safe rack on top of a foil-lined baking sheet then place the chicken thighs on the rack leaving space around for air circulation.
- Bake chicken thighs for about 35-40 minutes. Use a meat thermometer to check whether the chicken thighs are done. The internal temperature should be 165 F or the chicken juices should run clear and be crispy on the outside.
- Serve immediately.
