📝 Preparation Steps

Combine Spices

In a large bowl, whisk together all the spices to combine well. Add 2 TB olive oil and mix into a paste. Set aside.

Marinade

Thoroughly towel-dry the boneless, skinless chicken thighs. Slice each thigh into quarters, and coat with 1 TB olive oil. Add chicken into the bowl with marinade. Use tongs or clean hands to thoroughly coat all pieces of chicken evenly, on all sides. Cover tightly with cling wrap and chill overnight (at least ⏱️ 3-4 hours.)

Preheat and Cook

Let chicken come to room temp as you preheat oven to 400F, with rack on upper middle position. Once oven is heated, place chicken pieces in a single layer on a large, foil-lined baking sheet. Take care not to overlap or overcrowd the pieces. Roast ⏱️ 15 min or until just cooked.

Slice and Broil

Let chicken cool enough to handle. Slice all chicken into thin slices. Place back onto the baking sheet in an even layer. Broil on high for ⏱️ 7-10 minutes or until edges are nicely browned. Serve immediately with pita bread, basmati rice, or green salad.
