Instrucciones

Preheat oven to 350°F. Add chicken to roasting dish and season with salt, paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, oregano and black pepper. Drizzle with olive oil then toss well until evenly coated.

Add onions and thyme then pour bone broth into your pan. Avoid pouring it directly over the chicken so that the seasonings do not come off of the chicken.

Cover and bake for 1 hour 30 minutes.

Remove chicken from the oven and discard the sprigs of thyme. Pour as much of the broth into a separate bowl as possible and set chicken aside.

Increase oven temperature to 450.

Add ¼ cup chicken drippings to a small bowl along with arrowroot and whisk until smooth to make a slurry. Whisk the slurry into the bowl with the rest of your chicken drippings then pour the gravy over your chicken and toss well until evenly coated.

Return the chicken to the oven uncovered for 20 minutes longer, basting every 5 minutes (optional) until golden brown and gravy has thickened.

Serve over rice.
