Method
Preparation
Marinate Chicken
In a bowl, combine the chicken thighs with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, paprika, and olive oil. Mix well to ensure the chicken is evenly coated. If using, add the fresh herbs. Cover and let marinate for at least 30 minutes or up to 2 hours in the refrigerator.
Preheat Oven
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) to prepare for baking the chicken.
Cooking
Bake the Chicken
Place the marinated chicken thighs on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C) and the skin is golden brown.
Rest the Chicken
Once cooked, remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving. This allows the juices to redistribute for a juicier bite.
