Ingredients

2 servings

chicken thighs

do as many as you want

Seasoning

7:2:1 or 7:2:2, or kosher salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 425°F convection. Pat dry the chicken.

Step 2

Trim any loose skin with no meat off. Also, remove any fat that is easily removed.

Step 3

Prep a baking sheet. Line with aluminum foil, add a rack, and give a heavy spray of PAM. Use a baking sheet or pan big enough to hold all the thighs without touching.

Step 4

Place thighs skin down and sprinkle lightly with the spices of your choice. I went with 7:2:1 or 7:2:2. If you don't have that, just a little salt and pepper to taste. A pinch of cayenne would be good also. Flip and tuck in any thin parts underneath and sprinkle skin side.

Step 5

With skin side up, bake until internal temp of 180° to 185°F—about 30 minutes of cooking time. Then rest for 5 minutes or more before serving.
