Belgium international Timothy Castagne opened the scoring for the Foxes 10 minutes into the second half.
Jamie Vardy got his brace as he netted two penalties. He celebrated by cupping his ears in the empty stadium and said after the game that the gesture was for the home side's fans watching on television.
"It's massive for us, especially with how we finished last season and not having long to turn it around. We are delighted for three points," the 33-year-old told Sky Sports in a post-match interview.
"I practice penalties every week so I knew where I would hit those. I've enjoyed playing here over the years and scoring goals so that celebration was for the West Brom fams at home.
"Timothy Castagne was brilliant, he thoroughly deserved his goal and he gets into those areas. Wilfred Ndidi did brilliant in defence."
