How to Cook the Best Chicken Thighs

Pat the chicken thighs dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture. In a bowl, mix olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Coat the chicken thighs evenly with the seasoning. Let them marinate for at least 15 minutes for maximum flavor.

STEP 1.Oven-Baked Chicken Thighs Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Place chicken thighs on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 35-40 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown. Let them rest for 5 minutes before serving. Air Fryer Chicken Thighs Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C). Arrange the thighs in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Cook for 12-15 minutes, flipping halfway through. Check the internal temperature (165°F/74°C) and serve hot. Pan-Seared Chicken Thighs Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a pan over medium-high heat. Place chicken thighs skin-side down and cook for 5-7 minutes until crispy. Flip and cook for another 7 minutes until cooked through. Remove from heat and let rest before slicing.
