Step 1
Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Pat the 6 chicken thighs dry with paper towels.
Step 2
In a small bowl, mix 3 tbsp olive oil, 1 tsp paprika, 1 tsp garlic powder, 1 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp black pepper.
Step 3
Rub the spice mixture all over the chicken thighs, coating evenly.
Step 4
Place the chicken thighs skin-side up on a baking sheet. Roast for 35-40 minutes, until the skin is golden and crispy and the juices run clear.

Warm the 4 pita breads in the oven for the last 5 minutes of roasting, wrapped in foil.
Step 6
Serve the hot chicken thighs with the warm pita bread on the side.
