Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Stir together first 12 ingredients and 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a large bowl until blended.
  2. Skin chicken breasts. Remove breast bones by inserting a sharp knife tip between bone and meat, cutting gently to remove as much meat as possible. Cut breast halves into thirds. Cut deep slits, 1-inch apart, into remaining chicken pieces. (Do not skin pieces.) Place chicken in a large bowl with spice mixture. Thoroughly rub spice mixture into slits. Cover and chill 8 hours.
  3. Drizzle remaining 1 tablespoon oil in a large aluminum foil-lined roasting pan. Arrange chicken in a single layer in pan.
  4. Bake chicken at 450° for 35 minutes or until done.
  5. Arrange chicken on a serving platter. Garnish, if desired.
  6. Note: For testing purposes only, we used Butterball Best of the Fryer, a cut-up mix of chicken breasts, thighs, legs, and wings.
