Instructions

1
In a small bowl, combine the chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels, then rub the spice mixture evenly over both sides of each thigh.
2
Heat the olive oil in a large (12-inch) skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the chicken thighs in a single layer and cook undisturbed for 5–6 minutes, until the underside is deep golden brown and releases easily from the pan.
