Preparation

Put chicken in a large plastic sealable food storage bag or covered container. Combine the oil, lime juice, salt, pepper, garlic, and cilantro. Marinate for about 2 to 4 hours.

Heat oven to 375°.

Line a baking pan with foil and spray lightly with nonstick cooking spray.

Arrange chicken, skin-side up, in the baking pan.

Bake for 25 to 35 minutes, or until chicken registers 165° on an instant read thermometer stuck into the thickest part of the meat.
