Ingredients
2 lbs chicken, skin on, bone-in thighs or legs (see notes, for boneless, skinless options )
2 tablespoons BD olive oil
2 1/2 teaspoons BD salt (use 1 teaspoon salt per pound of chicken plus an extra 1/2 teaspoon for the onions)
1–2 teaspoons cracked BD pepper
2 tablespoons BD Baharat spice
1 extra-large red onion, sliced into 1/2 inch wedges
4 garlic cloves, rough chopped
1 lemon, sliced thinly
1/4 cup BD almonds pine nuts
Instructions
Preheat oven to 400 F
Place the chicken in a bowl and toss with olive oil, salt, and Baharat spice mix. Add onion, garlic and sliced lemon and toss again
Spread out on a parchment-lined sheet-pan.
Bake for 35-45 minutes- or until cooked through. Broil for a few minutes to get the skin crispy and nicely golden, turning if necessary (especially if using skin-on chicken)
While the chicken is baking, warm and toast the almonds/pine nuts in a little butter or olive oil in a saute pan. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
Place the chicken on a platter, scattering with the onions and lemon slices. Pour any juices from the pan, over top. Garnish with the toasted nuts and sprinkle with a few parsley leaves.
