Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs (approximately 8)
  • 1 tablespoon avocado oil
  • 2 teaspoons garlic powder
  • 2 teaspoons onion powder
  • 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon cumin (or smoked paprika)
  • 1 teaspoon Kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425ºF. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Remove the chicken from the fridge and let it sit for at least twenty minutes before cooking.
  3. Trim off any excess fat from the chicken thighs with a sharp knife. Pat them dry using a paper towel.
  4. In a small bowl, mix together garlic powder, onion powder, Italian seasoning, cumin, salt, and black pepper.
  5. Place the chicken thighs in a large bowl. Drizzle the avocado oil over them and sprinkle the spice mixture.
  6. Use your hands to thoroughly combine the spices with the chicken.
  7. Transfer the chicken to the prepared baking sheet.
  8. Bake in the oven for about 20 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165ºF.
  9. Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving to allow the juices to redistribute.

Notes

Serve with steamed vegetables, rice, or a green salad. Garnish with fresh herbs or lemon juice.
