Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

Step 2

In a small bowl, combine the salt, paprika, and garlic powder.

Step 3

Place chicken in a roasting pan, large baking dish, or a baking sheet lined with parchment or foil for easier clean up (optional).

Step 4

Drizzle the olive oil on both sides of the chicken, using your hands or a brush to coat it thoroughly. Sprinkle with the salt, paprika, and garlic powder mixture (or other seasoning) on both sides. (You can also carefully spread the seasoning under the skin, especially if you aren't planning on eat the skin.)

Step 5

Bake for 40-55 minutes, until the oven thermometer registers 165 degrees F. Remove and let sit for 10 minutes before serving.
