Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400°F. In a bowl, mix all spice mixture ingredients. Dust chicken with spice mix (store extra in a glass jar); sprinkle with salt and pepper. Coat a cast-iron frying pan or ovenproof sauté pan with cooking spray. Heat pan over medium-high heat 1 minute. Place chicken skin side down in the pan. Rest a heavy weight such as a foil-wrapped brick on top. (Or use another heavy ovenproof skillet or pan to keep skin of chicken in contact with the hot pan.) Lower heat; cook 6 minutes. Put the pan, weight and all, in the oven and cook 8 minutes more. Serve with lemon wedges, if desired, and asparagus or a seasonal green.

[email protected]This recipe is a bit too bland for my taste. I would recommend adding some more herbs and spices to the chicken before cooking.

[email protected]I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my chicken came out dry and overcooked. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what happened.

[email protected]I've made this recipe several times now, and it's always a winner. The chicken is always moist and tender, and the brick really helps to give it a nice crispy skin.

[email protected]This recipe is a keeper! The chicken came out juicy and flavorful, with a crispy skin that was to die for. I served it with roasted potatoes and a green salad, and it was a hit with the whole family.
