Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
Pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels.
In a small bowl, mix together olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, thyme, salt, and pepper.
Rub the seasoning mixture all over the chicken thighs, ensuring they are evenly coated.
Place the chicken thighs in a baking dish or on a baking sheet, skin-side up.
Bake for 35-45 minutes, or until the skin is golden brown and crispy, and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving.

For extra crispy skin, you can broil the chicken for the last 2-3 minutes of cooking, watching carefully to prevent burning.
Feel free to add other herbs and spices like rosemary, oregano, or chili powder to the seasoning mix.
Serve with your favorite side dishes like roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a fresh salad.
