Bake chicken in the preheated oven until skin is crispy, thighs are no longer pink at the bone, and the juices run clear, about 1 hour. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Serve hot and enjoy!

Recipe Tips

Double seasoning for even more flavor.

If you wish to broil chicken for the last part of cooking, do so for only 1 to 2 minutes, and watch carefully as the spices burn very quickly!
