Preparation Steps
- Make the marinade. Whisk together the lemon juice, olive oil, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, pepper, cumin, smoked paprika, turmeric, and cinnamon.
- Marinate the chicken. Place the chicken in a large freezer bag and pour the marinade over it. Seal the bag and massage the marinade into the chicken. Chill in the fridge for 1 hour.
- Prep. While the chicken is marinating, preheat the oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Bake. Allow the chicken to sit at room temperature for 10 minutes before arranging it in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a meat thermometer inserted into the largest piece reads 165°F.
- Rest. Remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
- Serve. Serve the chicken over rice, garnished with fresh parsley. You could also stuff it into pita pockets with hummus and veggies.
Notes
For best results, marinate the chicken overnight for deeper flavor.
