Description
These baked chicken thighs are dead simple to make and taste great. Just mix spices in a bowl, dump over chicken, and stick in the oven. I've gone with thighs today to mix it up, but chicken breasts would also work (just reduce the time). For a dish with a similar cooking method, check out my Gluten Free Baked Buffalo Wings.

Ingredients
Serving(s)
Spice Mix
- 1 tbsp Paprika
- 1 tbsp Garlic powder
- 1 tbsp Onion powder
- 1 tbsp Chili powder
- 1 tsp Thyme, dried
- 1 tsp Salt
Chicken
- 6 thighs, about 2 lb Boneless skinless chicken thighs
- 2 tbsp Lemon juice
Instructions
Cook Mode Off: Prevents screen dimming
- Preheat your oven to 250F (not a typo), and line a large cookie sheet with parchment paper
- Add your chicken thighs to a large bowl with lemon juice and the spices. Mix until fully combined. Transfer to your baking sheet
- Roast at 250F for about 45 minutes
- Increase the oven temp to 400F, and roast for another 30-45 minues.
Notes
- You can also use thinly sliced chicken breasts instead. Just do 1 bake at 400F until the breasts reach 165F, about 15 minutes
- You can eat them as a standalone piece of meat on your plate, but today I decided to chop up the baked pieces and use them in place of ground turkey in my Penne and Meat Casserole Bake
