Ingredients

Bone-In Chicken Thighs

  • 4 bone-in chicken thighs
  • 2 tbsp avocado oil (or other high-heat cooking oil)
  • 1 1/2 tsp apple cider vinegar
  • 1/2 tsp cumin
  • 1 1/2 tsp paprika or smoked paprika
  • 1 tsp coriander
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp fresh black pepper
  • 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper (optional)

Whole Chicken

  • 1 whole chicken (roughly 3 pounds)
  • 1 stick butter
  • 2 stalks celery
  • 1 tbsp onion powder
  • salt and fresh black pepper

Instructions

Bone-In Chicken Thighs

  • Preheat oven to 400°F.
  • Remove chicken from refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for 15 to 30 minutes.
  • Whisk together the oil, vinegar, and spices in a medium bowl.
  • Remove the chicken from its package, pat it dry, and toss it in the oil mixture until evenly covered.
  • Let chicken sit in the marinade for up to 15 minutes.
  • Place marinaded chicken evenly spaced on a baking sheet, skin side up.
  • Bake for 35-45 minutes until the skin is golden-to-medium brown and crispy.

Whole Chicken

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Let chicken sit at room temperature for roughly 30 minutes.
  • Cut butter into 1/2 tablespoon-sized chunks. Chop each celery stalk into 3 pieces of equal length.
  • Thoroughly drain chicken and remove giblets, discarding (or separately cooking) the livers. Place the chicken in a roasting pan alongside the giblets.
  • Place celery in the chicken cavity, followed by 3 tablespoons of the butter. Distribute the remaining butter evenly around the chicken in the bottom of the pan.
  • Generously season the outside and inside of the chicken with salt, pepper, and onion powder.
  • Bake chicken uncovered for about 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until a thermometer reads 165 degrees when inserted at the thickest part of the thigh.
  • Remove from oven and baste with drippings. Cover with foil and rest for 30 minutes before carving and serving.
