Instructions

In a large bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, paprika, salt, cumin, and turmeric.
Add chicken and toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate for 20-30 minutes.
Preheat grill (or broiler) on high. Toss the chicken once more and then transfer the chicken from the marinade to the grill or a greased broiler pan. Discard any remaining marinade. Grill or broil chicken for 6-8 minutes per side or until cooked. Chicken is cooked when a food thermometer inserted into the thickest part reads 165°F.
Serve warm with a sprinkle of optional fresh cilantro or parsley.

Storage: Refrigerate in an airtight container for 3-4 days.
