1 tbsp. cumin
1 tsp. kosher salt
1 tsp. dried oregano

Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. In a small bowl combine chili powder, cumin, salt, pepper and oregano. Season the chicken with the spice mixture.

Heat cast iron skillet over medium heat and add a tablespoon of oil. Sear the chicken, breast side down in the skillet for approximately 2-4 minutes until lightly browned. Turn the chicken over and place the skillet into the oven to finish cooking. Bake for 35 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees.
