* Makes 4 Servings.
== Ingredients ==
* 4 large or 6 medium chicken legs
* 2 tbsp olive oil
* ½ tsp ground cumin
* ½ tsp ground coriander seed
* ½ tsp freshly cracked black pepper
* ½ tsp salt
* ¼ tsp cayenne pepper
* 2 tsp freshly grated lemon zest
* 2 tbsp honey, slightly warmed
== Directions ==
# Preheat the oven to 375°F.
# Place chicken in shallow baking dish and brush with olive oil.
# Combine spices and lemon zest in a bowl, then sprinkle and rub on chicken.
# Bake 30 minutes.
# Baste with pan juices and then drizzle with honey.
# Bake 15 to 20 minutes more, or until cooked through.
== Notes ==
* Use bone-in chicken breasts instead of chicken legs.
* The spice mix is also nice to rub on roasting chicken or pork loin or leg roasts.
* Drizzle such roasts with the honey near the end of cooking so it does not scorch.
