Crispy Italian Chicken Thighs

These chicken thighs are seriously one of my kids (and husband's) most requested meals! They call it

"crispy chicken". And they are SO simple......budget friendly too!  A good friend of mine posted this recipe on a group I'm part of a long time ago, and I've been making these ever since, at least a few times a month.  And I've recently discovered our new favorite way to eat green beans!  It's a Pioneer Woman recipe, which never disappoints, and they are equally simple and delicious. I'll post the green bean recipe to follow!

Crispy Italian Chicken Thighs

recipe from Stupid Easy Paleo

*Note: I think the key to getting the chicken skin nice and crispy (which is the best part) is making sure the skin is DRY before putting on the seasoning.  So make sure and pat the chicken dry first!

You will  need:

-1 package bone in chicken thighs (with the skin)

-1 Tablespoon garlic powder

-1 teaspoon red pepper flakes

-1 teaspoon dried oregano

-1 teaspoon sea salt

*Preheat oven to 425.  Line a baking sheet with foil or parchment paper.

*Mix together all seasonings in a small bowl

*Place chicken thighs on baking sheet and pat dry with a paper towel

*Sprinkle half the seasonings on each side (you'll want to bake the chicken skin side up, so season the bottom of the chicken first, then flip and season the skin side second)

*Bake 45 minutes
