Ingredients

Chicken:
• 4 large chicken thighs (about 1–1¼ lbs)
• 1 tsp salt
• 1 tsp smoked paprika
• 1 tsp Italian seasoning
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1 tsp onion powder
• ½ tsp black pepper
• Oil spray or 1 tbsp oil

Garlic Butter Buns:
• 4 brioche buns
• 3 tbsp salted butter, melted
• 2 garlic cloves, pressed
• 1 tbsp fresh dill, chopped
• Pinch of salt

Garlic Aioli:
