Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

Pat your chicken thighs dry with paper towels and lay them skin-side up on a baking sheet.

In a small bowl, mix olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, thyme, salt, and pepper into a paste.

Rub the seasoning mixture generously over each chicken thigh, ensuring full coverage.

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and arrange the chicken thighs skin-side up.

Bake the chicken in the preheated oven for 45–50 minutes until golden brown and cooked through (165°F internal temperature).

For extra crispiness, switch to broil and broil for 3–5 minutes. Watch closely to avoid burning.

Allow the chicken to rest for 5–10 minutes before serving.
