EASY CILANTRO LIME CHICKEN RECIPE
All-star cilantro lime chicken recipe! Chicken thighs, prepared Mediterranean-style with a special spice mixture and cooked to tender perfection in a tasty garlic, lime and cilantro sauce. You can cook this in the oven (my preference) or in the slow cooker (see notes for instructions). Bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs are my preference here, but you can use boneless thighs or even chicken breasts if you like. (Note that cooking time will change, and I've listed all the details in the post.)

SKILLET CHICKEN WITH CUMIN, PAPRIKA AND MINT
Chicken shawarma, a rotisserie favorite heady with spice and flavor, is usually cooked on a spit, then shaved into sandwiches and salads. But it also belongs on a bed of rice, cooked in a pan for a filling family meal that's easy to return to again and again. White rice does a fine job rounding out this meal, and cooks quickly. But, if brown rice is more your speed, look for the sprouted short-grain variety, which cooks faster than regular brown rice and reaches al dente just as the chicken begins to split into tender morsels. (To cook the rice even faster, soak it while you marinate the chicken.) Cooking this on the stove yields crisp rice bits along the bottom of the pan, especially nice against the tender, flavorful chicken. Since even the best shawarma is only as good as its bright flavors, be generous with mint, parsley, yogurt and lime: the more, the better.

Steps:
- Combine the lemon juice, 1/4 cup of the olive oil, the garlic, 1 teaspoon salt, pepper, cumin, paprika and turmeric in a large resealable plastic bag along with the chicken pieces. Seal and shake the bag to coat chicken and distribute the spices evenly. Set aside for 30 minutes, or refrigerate up to overnight.
- Heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil in a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade, letting the excess drip off, and cook until lightly golden, about 4 minutes per side. Remove to a plate.
- Add the onion to the pan, and stir to coat. Decrease heat to medium and cook until softening, about 5 minutes. Add the rice and remaining salt, and stir to coat. Add the boiling water; stir, cover and cook until the liquid is partly absorbed, 10 minutes. Stir in the cinnamon stick and raisins, top with the chicken thighs and their juices, and continue cooking, covered, over medium heat, until the rice is al dente and the chicken is completely tender, about 25 minutes more.
- Remove from the heat and scatter the mint and parsley all over the top. Serve warm, with yogurt and lime.

- Wash and prepare the chicken by cutting slits in a diagonal across the thickest parts. I usually make a diagonal slit on both sides of each drumstick. This will ensure the marinade gets into the meat and also will give you even cooking throughout.
- Wash and chop the mint leaves then place in a ziplock bag. Add to the bag the yogurt, lime juice and zest, and if using the chicken for the grill / BBQ I suggest you also add 1/2 teaspoon of peppermint extract to avoid the mint flavour from being lost in the BBQ smoke and charcoal! Then add the prepared drumsticks. Combine everything in the bag well, seal it and place in the fridge for at least 30 minutes. Overnight is even better!
- When ready to cook, if using an oven, set to 180 C / 350 F / Gas 4 and either place the chicken on a baking tray or place the chicken and marinade in a casserole dish nd bake until done. Approximately 20 - 30 minutes, depending on how thick the drumsticks are.
