Oven baked chicken



The secret to making these oven baked chicken is to coat the chicken with flour then sear it in a pan before baking it.  The spices I used consist of 1/8 teaspoon of cumin, all spice, salt, coriander and smoked paprika. It must be smoked paprika, it makes all the difference in the world. A little bit of cayenne to add some heat.  After coating both sides with spices, I put the chicken into a plastic bag with a few tablespoon of flour and shake to coat all the chicken.  Then sear both sides before baking it in the oven.  Searing it keeps the juices in and this makes the chicken incredibly tender and juicy.
