Servings: persons

4 chicken thighs
Spice Rub
2 teaspoons ground cumin
2 teaspoons paprika
2 teaspoons ground turmeric
3/4 teaspoon garlic powder (can go down to 1/2 - I looove garlic..)
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)
2 tablespoons olive oil (enough to coat the bottom of a skillet and a 9x5 baking dish)

1
In a shallow dish, stir together all spices and 1 teaspoon salt. Coat chicken thighs with spice mix.
2
Warm the oil in a skillet and pan-fry chicken thighs, making sure each side is nicely browned.
3
Transfer chicken thighs to a greased (butter or olive oil) 9x5 baking dish. If you have any remaining spice mix, feel free to sprinkle it over the thighs, as this will reduce to a nice gravy. Put in pre-heated oven at 375 for 45 minutes, or until juices run clear.
4
Serve with basmati rice or couscous.
