Easy Skillet Chicken Thighs

Instructions

1. 1
   Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Pat chicken thighs dry with paper towels.
2. 2
   In a small bowl, mix smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper. Rub seasoning all over the chicken.
3. 3
   Heat olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken, skin side down, and sear 7–8 minutes until skin is golden and crisp.
4. 4
   Flip thighs, pour chicken broth into skillet (avoiding chicken tops), and transfer skillet to oven.
5. 5
   Bake 15–20 minutes until chicken is cooked through (175°F internally). Broil 2 minutes if desired for extra-crispy skin.
6. 6
   Rest thighs 5 minutes. Sprinkle with fresh parsley and serve.
