Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Chicken thighs or breasts, bone-in and skin-on
- 1 packet Onion soup mix
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Pat the chicken pieces dry with paper towels to ensure the skin crisps up during baking.
Rub each piece of chicken with olive oil, ensuring an even coating.
Sprinkle the onion soup mix over the chicken, gently pressing it into the skin to adhere. Make sure each chicken piece is evenly coated.
Place the chicken pieces in a single layer in a baking dish or on a foil-lined baking sheet, skin side up.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35–40 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and the skin is golden and crispy.
Remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving to allow the juices to redistribute.
Serve warm with your favorite side dishes, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a crisp green salad.
