Ingredients

  • 6-7 chicken thighs skin on, bone in
  • 1 medium Orange
  • 1 Lemon
  • 1 Lime
  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic
  • ½ onion sliced
  • ½ -1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 tablespoon onion powder
  • ½ -1 teaspoon cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes
  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped rosemary
  • 1 1/2 or more vegetables (zucchini, potatoes, carrots )
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Season chicken with salt and pepper. Set aside.
  • Squeeze out juice from orange, lemon and lime into a non- reactive pan. Add cumin, garlic, onion, cayenne pepper and rosemary. Mix well to combine, adjust for seasoning. Refrigerate until ready to use.
  • Season chicken with salt and pepper then marinate chicken thighs with about 2/3 of the marinade. Make sure to coat both sides of the chicken.
  • When ready to cook, heat up a cast iron or oven safe skillet with about 2 tablespoons oil, and then brown the chicken- skin side down for about 5 minutes. Remove and place chicken aside.
