- Generously season the chicken thighs with garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. This will create a delicious and flavorful crust.
- Roast the chicken thighs in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet. This will prevent the chicken from steaming and ensure it gets crispy.

- Let the chicken thighs rest for 5-10 minutes before serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute and make the chicken more tender.
