- 1 tsp paprika
- 1 tsp ground mustard
- 1/2 tsp fresh ground black pepper
- 1 tbs extra virgin olive oil
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a sheet pan with parchment or foil.
- Trim chicken thighs of any extra fat and skin. Pat dry with paper towels (very important!)

Notes
Chicken is done at an internal temperature of 165°F, but chicken thighs get extra juicy when cooked to higher temps of 185°-190°F.
