Quick and Easy Baked Chicken Thighs

I've posted variations of this recipe before because it's pretty much my go to method for cooking chicken when I don't have the time or energy to get fancy. I've been in the habit of adding olive oil before the seasoning but for some reason I decided not to and I liked the way the skin crisped up without it. So that's the main difference between this recipe and the previous ones.

With this recipe you can buy the chicken on your way home, have it in the oven about 30 minutes after you arrive, prepare your sides while it is cooking, and have dinner on the table with minimal effort.

QUICK AND EASY BAKED CHICKEN THIGHS
4 bone in chicken thighs with skin
salt and pepper to taste
1/2 tsp garlic powder

2 tsp dried thyme leaves

Preheat oven to 350° F.

Arrange chicken thighs in a single layer in a baking dish. Season to taste with the salt and pepper, followed by the garlic powder, paprika and thyme.

Cover and cook for 45 minutes, then uncover and cook for another 30 minutes, or until the skin is crisp and the internal temperature registers 165° F.

Remove from the oven and let sit at least ten minutes before serving.
