What You Need:

• Chicken Thighs - Bone In/Skin On
• Avocado Oil
• Chicken Spice Rub - I use my Easy Chicken Spice Rub, but I also love Primal Palate's Meat & Potato Seasoning
• Baking Dish
• Basting Brush
• Meat Thermometer

Let's Bake Chicken:

1. Preheat the oven to 425'
2. Trim any excess skin off of the chicken and pat dry
3. Brush with avocado oil and season the chicken with your spice rub of choice (I use my sugar-free chicken spice rub)
4. Place the chicken in the baking dish and bake for 45-60 minutes (time depends on the size of the thighs - internal temp should be 165'F)
5. Once chicken is cooked through, brush with juices from the pan and enjoy! (if skin needs extra crisping, you can broil for a few minutes at the end - just don't let it burn)

What to Serve with It:

• Thyme Roasted Radishes
• Instant Pot Mashed Potatoes
• The Best Ever Cauliflower Mash
• Dairy Free Scalloped Potatoes
• Gluten Free Drop Biscuits
• Creamy Cheesy Instant Pot Brussels Sprouts
