Chicken with Preserved Lemon and Lebanese Zaatar

For this recipe you need:

4 chicken legs

1 heaped tsp of Lebanese zaatar

2 salt-preserved lemons

1 good tablespoon of small olives with pits

olive oil

In a bowl, prepare a zaatar marinade by mixing olive oil and the famous spice blend. Add the juice from the preserved lemons and a good part of the pulp, keeping the peel.

Mix this marinade with your chicken thighs and leave to marinate for about 1 hour.

Preheat your oven to 180°. Place the chicken thighs in a dish with the lemon peel in small pieces and the olives. Bake for 35 minutes.

Vegetables, semolina or bulgur will go wonderfully with your dish!
