Ingredients

• ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
• ¼ teaspoon onion salt
• ¼ teaspoon dried oregano
• ¼ teaspoon garlic salt
• cooking spray
• ¼ teaspoon ground paprika
• ¼ teaspoon ground thyme
• 8 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil; spray foil with cooking spray.

Step 2

Arrange chicken thighs, skin-side up, on the prepared baking sheet.

Step 3

Combine garlic salt, onion salt, oregano, thyme, paprika, and pepper in a small bowl; mix until well combined. Sprinkle spice mixture liberally over chicken thighs.

Step 4

Bake chicken in the preheated oven until skin is crispy, thighs are no longer pink at the bone, and the juices run clear, about 1 hour. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
