Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 ½ pounds bone-in, skinless chicken thighs

  • 1 teaspoon salt

  • ½ teaspoon black pepper

  • 1 teaspoon paprika

  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme

  • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary

  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch mixed with 2 tablespoons water


Instructions

  • Season chicken thighs with salt, black pepper, paprika, thyme, rosemary, and garlic powder.
