Method
 

  1. In a large bowl, soak the chicken thighs in buttermilk for at least 2 hours or overnight for best results.

  3. In a separate bowl, mix together the flour, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper.
  4. Remove chicken thighs from the buttermilk, allowing excess to drip off, and coat each thigh thoroughly in the flour mixture.
  5. Place the coated chicken thighs on the prepared wire rack and lightly spray with cooking oil or drizzle with olive oil.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes or until the chicken is golden brown and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
