Method
- Marinade the chicken with the spices, lemon zest and juice and olive oil, for a few hours or overnight.
- Preheat the oven to 220C and put in an oven proof dish or tray to heat.

Notes
For best results marinade the chicken overnight, however if you are short of time, then just a few hours will do.
