Preparation

• 1.

  Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

• 2.

  In a small bowl, mix together the minced garlic, lime juice, lime zest, soy sauce, olive oil, cumin, paprika, salt, and pepper until well combined.

• 3.

  Place the chicken thighs in a baking dish and pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring each piece is well coated. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes (or up to 2 hours in the fridge for deeper flavor).

  Once marinated, place the chicken in the oven and roast for about 35-40 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and the skin is crispy.

  Remove from oven and let rest for a few minutes before serving.

  Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve with lemon wedges.
