Ingredients

5-6 large Chicken Quarters with skin (about 1 pound)
2 teaspoons garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1.5 teaspoons smoked paprika
1 teaspoon mild paprika
1 teaspoon oregano
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoon Oil

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (218 degrees C).
Pat dry chicken quarters well.
In a large mixing bowl, add all the spices and oil. Mix well. Add in the chicken and use hands to coat each chicken piece well.
For better flavor, let the chicken rest for 1 hour ( if you are short of time, you can bake right away) or marinate in the refrigerator for upto 24 hours. Make sure you bring chicken close to room temperature.
Arrange chicken in a baking tray. Apply any remaining marinade in the bowl to the chicken. Bake for 35-40 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 170 degrees F (74 degrees C). Towards the end, broil at the uppermost rack for 2 minutes for crispy skin.
