Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a 12-inch oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Place the chicken thighs skin-side down and sear undisturbed for 7–8 minutes, until the skin is deep golden and releases easily from the pan. Flip and sear the second side for 3 minutes. Transfer the chicken to a plate and set aside; leave the rendered fat in the skillet.
