Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven broiler to high and position the oven rack about 6 inches from the heating element.
  2. Pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels to ensure the skin gets crispy.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, thyme, salt, and pepper.
  4. Arrange the chicken thighs skin-side up on a broiler pan or a rimmed baking sheet lined with foil.
  5. Brush both sides of the chicken generously with the herb-oil mixture.
  6. Place the pan under the preheated broiler.
  7. Broil for 10-12 minutes, watching closely to prevent burning, until the skin is golden brown and bubbly.
  8. Flip the chicken over and broil for another 8-10 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 165&# 194;°F.
  9. Remove from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes before serving.
