Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). This high temperature will help the chicken skin crisp up beautifully.

Pat the chicken dry with paper towels. This helps the skin get crispy when baked.
Place the chicken pieces on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup.

In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil (or melted butter), garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, thyme, rosemary (if using), salt, and pepper.
Rub the seasoning mixture all over the chicken, making sure to coat both sides and under the skin (if using bone-in, skin-on chicken). The more you rub it in, the more flavorful your chicken will be!

Arrange the chicken on the baking sheet in a single layer. If you’re using skin-on pieces, make sure the skin is facing up to get that crispy, golden texture.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 35-45 minutes, depending on the size and type of chicken pieces. Chicken breasts may cook faster than thighs or drumsticks.
Check for doneness by using a meat thermometer — the internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C). If you don’t have a thermometer, you can cut into the thickest part of the chicken to make sure the juices run clear.
