Preheat oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit. Lightly grease a 9x13 pan or
3 quart baking dish.
Trim the chicken thighs of any excess fat or skin. Place chicken
thighs directly into the prepared dish, skin side up.
Drizzle chicken skin with olive oil and rub to coat.
In a small bowl, stir together paprika, basil, oregano, garlic powder,
onion powder, salt, and pepper. Sprinkle evenly on top of chicken
thighs.
Roast chicken in the preheated 450 degree oven for 35-40 minutes,
or until chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees
Fahrenheit.
Remove from oven and brush the tops of each piece of chicken with
the juices from the pan. Place under the broiler setting for 1 to 2
minutes to finish and add extra crispiness to the skin.
