Baked Brazillian Chicken - low carb, low fat

[QSis]

buckytom,

I made the recipe as you posted it, except I sprinkled a little more paprika on top before I put it in the oven, and I used a metal roasting pan, covered with heavy duty foil and sprayed with Pam (easier clean-up).

Marinaded for just over 24 hours, oven-baked at 400 for 50 minutes. Perfect!

Baked (or roasted, broiled, or grilled ) Brazillian Chicken

2 split bone-in chicken breasts, skin and fat discarded
2 chicken leg quarters, skin and fat discarded
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
2 tablespoons evoo
2 cloves of garlic, smashed and roughly chopped
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon dried oregano
3/4 teaspoon cumin seeds
salt and pepper to taste

in a large zip-lock bag, combine all ingredients and mush around to get everything mixed and coating the chicken well. remove as much air from bag and refrigerate.

let marinade overnight in the fridge, 2 nights are even better.

preheat oven to 400 degrees.
spray a large glass baking dish with non-fat cooking spray or a little olive oil, and place chicken (bones down) in the dish. bake uncovered until cooked thru, anywhere 35 to 50 minutes, depending on the thickness of the chicken.

I'm tardy in reading these, this looks delicious
