Ingredients

2 chicken breast halves

1 tsp chili powder

1/4 tsp ground cumin

1/4 tsp ground coriander

1/4 tsp black pepper

1/8 tsp ground cinnamon

1 tsp salt

1 1/2 Tbls vegetable oil

3 Tblsp water

Directions

Preheat oven to 450 degrees.

Pat chicken dry. Stir together spices, salt, and 1 1/2 tsp of oil. Rub this mixture on the chicken. Heat remaining oil in a heavy pan, preferably an iron skillet, over medium high heat until almost smoking. Put coated chicken pieces in the skillet and brown on both sides - for about 5 minutes per side. Place entire skillet on the center rack of the oven and roast until chicken is done, 18-20 minutes. Remove the chicken to a serving plate, and deglaze the pan with water, scraping up the browned bits. Serve the sauce over the chicken.
