This is one of those easy meals that can be prepared in minutes. We always have leftover chicken with this recipe, which I use to make variations of chicken salads such as wild rice, chopped veggie, and chicken, or Chicken Salad Lettuce Wraps. When I put the chicken in the oven I like to also place four or five small yams in the oven to bake too. Serve chicken with baked yams and a green salad for a balanced meal. For a low-carb side dish, serve with sliced avocados, baby arugula, and a Lime Vinaigrette.

Ingredients
2 pounds bone-in chicken breasts
2 pounds bone-in chicken legs
2 tablespoons coconut oil
1 teaspoons sea salt
2 teaspoons chipotle chili powder
1 limes cut into wedges

Garnish

2 green onions sliced
¼ cups chopped cilantro
