Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a sheet pan with aluminum foil for easy clean-up.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, salt, black pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, smoked paprika, brown sugar, and Italian seasoning. Stir until all ingredients are well blended.
  3. Add the chicken thighs to the bowl, thoroughly coating them with the seasoning mixture.
  4. Place the seasoned chicken thighs on the lined sheet pan, ensuring they are arranged smooth side up.
  5. Bake the chicken in the preheated oven for 20-30 minutes, flipping them halfway through.
  6. Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the chicken; it should reach 165°F (74°C).
  7. Remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for about 5 minutes before serving.
