Equipment

  • Oven
  • rimmed baking sheet
  • large bowl

Ingredients
  

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 teaspoons garlic powder
  • 2 teaspoons onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground paprika
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon dried parsley
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 pounds chicken thighs 6-8 pieces, patted dry
  • 1 tablespoon butter diced

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a rimmed baking sheet or large rimmed pan with foil and place in the oven as it heats up.
  • Combine olive oil and all seasoning in a large bowl until a paste forms.
  • Place chicken thighs in bowl with seasoning and toss to coat. Remove each thigh individually, rubbing the seasoning into the skin.
  • Place chicken thighs on heated pan; dot with butter. Bake in the hot oven for 20 minutes.
  • Carefully remove and baste chicken with emerging juices from the pan. Return to the oven and bake for 10 more minutes, then baste again.
  • Finish baking for 5-15 minutes, until chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.

Notes

Use a rimmed pan or baking dish, as there will be a lot of juices emerging from the chicken during baking.
