Equipment

  • oven
  • baking dish
  • meat thermometer
  • large bowl

Ingredients
  

Chicken Thighs

  • 2 pounds boneless skinless chicken thighs
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder

Cooking Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F. Place the chicken thighs in a large bowl.
  • Add the olive oil and spices. Use your hands to coat the chicken.
  • Arrange the seasoned thighs in a single layer on a rimmed baking dish. If there's some residual oil and spice mixture in the bowl, brush it on the chicken pieces.
  • Bake uncovered until the thighs are cooked through, juices run clear, and an instant-read thermometer inserted reads 165ºF. This takes about 30 minutes.
  • Serve immediately.

Notes

If you buy them in pre-packaged trays at the supermarket, boneless, skinless chicken thighs come in various sizes. It's OK to bake them all together until the biggest ones are cooked through. The small ones will still be juicy and delicious! You can trim the fat, but I don't. Most of it melts away during baking, adding flavor and moisture.
