# Zesty Broiled Chicken
## INGREDIENTS
* 1 (3-pound) chicken, quartered
* 1 tablespoon Zesty Seasoning Mix
* 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
### ZESTY SEASONING MIX:
*(triple batch)*
* ¼ cup garlic powder
* 1 tablespoon ground cumin
* 1 tablespoon paprika
* 1 tablespoon seasoned salt
* 1 tablespoon lemon pepper or 1 teaspoon black pepper
**SERVES 4**
## Make Ahead
Make a double batch of this tasty chicken to have on hand for leftovers. Prepare as recipe directs; cover and refrigerate.
## VARIATION
Add dried basil and dried oregano to the Zesty Seasoning Mix and omit the cumin for an Italian flavor.
## DIRECTIONS
**1.** Preheat broiler. Cut chicken into serving pieces. Remove skin and trim any fat. Place on a foiled-lined broiler pan.
**2.** Vigorously shake Zesty Seasoning Mix ingredients in a small jar. Place oil and 1 tablespoon of the mix in a small bowl; mix well.
**3.** Brush oil mixture on all sides of chicken.
**4.** Broil chicken, turning twice, until juices run clear when meat is pierced with a knife, about 35 minutes.
## Make It Quicker
* After preparing the chicken, scrub cutting board with a paste made of equal amounts of baking soda and water for quick cleanup.
* Prevent burned-on juices from sticking to the bottom of the broiler pan before broiling by adding just enough water to cover the bottom of the pan.
