Ingredients
- 4 bone-in - skin-on chicken breasts
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
- ¼ teaspoon paprika
- ¼ teaspoon chili powder
- ½ cup avocado oil - canola oil, or vegetable oil
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with foil and place a cooking rack on top.
- Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels to ensure the skin crisps up.
- In a small bowl, combine ½ teaspoon salt, ½ teaspoon garlic powder, ½ teaspoon onion powder, ½ teaspoon ground black pepper, ¼ teaspoon paprika, and ¼ teaspoon chili powder. Rub the spice mixture all over the chicken breasts, making sure the seasoning covers both sides.
- In a large skillet, heat ½ cup of avocado oil (or your preferred high-smoke point oil) over medium-high heat until hot.
- Carefully place the chicken breasts skin-side down into the hot skillet. Cook for 2 minutes, until the skin is golden and crispy. Flip the chicken breasts over and cook for another 2 minutes on the other side.
- Place the seared chicken breasts onto the prepared baking sheet with rack. Drizzle 1 teaspoon of the oil from the skillet onto each chicken breast. Transfer the baking sheet to the preheated oven.
- Bake for 45 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F when measured with a meat thermometer. Remove from oven and add to a plate. Let the chicken sit for 10 minutes before slicing. Serve and enjoy!
