CILANTRO-LIME CHICKEN AND ZUCCHINI
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 In a small bowl, combine the coriander and cumin, sea salt, and pepper. Coat the chicken with the oil and season both sides with the spice mixture. Pan-fry the chicken on medium-high heat for 5 minutes on each side. Transfer to oven, and bake for 32 minutes. Small thighs may take only 30 minutes. Remove from the oven when done, and garnish with fresh-squeezed lime juice and chopped cilantro. Zucchini makes a great addition to this dish - I cut them in half lengthwise, season with olive oil and pepper, and put in the oven with the chicken when there are 16 minutes left. You will notice mine are a little brown on top...that is because once I removed them from the oven I returned them to the messy pan I had fried the chicken in and gave them a quick sizzle, just a couple of minutes in the hot pan will do! Drizzle the zucchini with the lime juice and cilantro. This dish could easily turn Italian by replacing the cilantro with parsley and the lime with lemon, and some of the spices with italian seasonings.
