A sweet, tangy and fragrant Asian dish.
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
2. In an airtight storage container, mix together all dry ingredients (sesame seeds, ginger, tumeric, sugar, sea salt, coriander, cardamom, cumin, cinnamon, black pepper). Cover and shake well to mix.
3. Spray the bottom of a 9×13 glass baking dish with olive oil cooking spray. Rub spice mixture over both sides of each chicken breast (about 1/2 tablespoon for each side). Spray the top of the chicken breasts with cooking spray.
4. Bake for 15 minutes, then flip breasts, and spray again with cooking spray (this will help brown the chicken). Bake for an additional 15 minutes.
The spice rub will keep for 3-4 months in an airtight container.

This is really very, very good. I had recently tried a similar recipe in the new Gourmet cookbook, and was thrilled with the idea (that recipe used a cast iron skillet, browned the chicken on the stove, and finished it off in the oven.) This was a great shortcut, doing the whole thing in the oven. (I still used the skillet.) This combination of spices is wonderful – you may have doubts when you smell the mixture, but when it is cooked, something magical happens! My husband and I really enjoyed this. If you deglaze the pan with a bit of water (or wine!), it makes a nice sauce for your side dishes.
