- When you are ready to cook, preheat oven to 425°F.
- Season the chicken with the rest of the spices and oil and rub all over so it is evenly coated.
- Spray a baking sheet with oil spray or cover with foil and then oil spray for easier clean up.
- Spread the chicken on the baking sheet evenly spaced and bake in oven for 20- 25 minutes or so depending on the size.
- When cooked, put the chicken on the platter and garnish before serving.
