Super-easy baked chicken thighs

OK, this isn't the most beautiful picture I have ever taken. But it depicts a certain beauty to me in a dinner together -- the beauty of ease.

The beauty of, we have chicken thighs but absolutely nothing jazzy to put on them. And no fresh spices because it is the dead of winter.

On nights like this, the extremely simple recipe my husband spotted on chowhound will get you through...and your kids, like mine did, might even like it.

Blink and you'll miss these directions...

Super-easy Baked Chicken Thighs

Serves 6-8

8 chicken thighs, skin on
2 teaspoons salt
Freshly ground black pepper to taste
2 teaspoons dried rosemary

Preheat the oven to 500 degrees. Set chicken thighs on a sturdy baking sheet and sprinkle with the salt, pepper, and rosemary. Bake for 20 minutes, then lower the temperature to 350 for another 35-40 min until done. (Check with an instant-read thermometer -- the thighs should reach an internal temperature of about 175 degrees.)
