Equipment

  • Oven
  • Baking tray

Ingredients

  • 6 pieces Chicken thighs boneless skinless
  • 1 teaspoon Paprika
  • ¼ teaspoon Garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon Oregano
  • ¼ teaspoon Parsley
  • ¼ teaspoon Thyme
  • ¼ teaspoon Black pepper or to taste
  • Salt to taste

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven: Raise the oven rack one level above the middle. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Make the seasoning: Mix together the paprika, thyme, oregano, garlic powder, parsley, salt, and pepper.
  • Season the chicken thighs: Pat dry the chicken thighs and add the seasoning to them. Ensure they are all covered with the seasoning mix.
  • Bake: Arrange the chicken thighs smooth side up on a baking tray, then put the baking tray in the preheated oven and bake chicken thighs at a temperature of 400F/200C for 25 - 30 minutes depending on size.
  • When it's cooked, bring the baking tray out of the oven, and leave the chicken thighs to rest for 5 minutes.
    You can coat chicken thighs in marinades like honey garlic, bbq sauce, peri peri sauce, or any other delicious marinades.
  • Serve and enjoy with sides of choice.

Notes

  • You can also use bone in chicken thighs, or chicken breasts. Depending on the type of chicken, the cooking time will need to be adjusted. Add additional 5-10 minutes for bone-in.
  • Use a paper towel to pat dry the chicken thighs before adding seasoning to them.
  • No need to use oil in marinating the chicken.
  • Season the chicken on all sides, both the top and under. Apply the rub thoroughly over the chicken for flavor.
  • You can line the baking tray with parchment paper to make cleaning the tray after cooking easier.
  • With skinless chicken, bake with the smooth sides facing up and if using skin-on, bake with skin side up.
  • Cook chicken until it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit or 75 degrees Celcius.
  • Leave it to sit for 5 minutes in the baking tray before serving to allow the juices to redistribute.
