Coat the strips of the chicken in a mixture of the olive oil, lemon juice, cumin, paprika, turmeric, cinnamon, ground coriander, garlic, salt and black pepper, cover and marinate in the fridge at least 1 hour, preferably overnight.

Preheat the oven to 220°C (430°F).
⚙ Preheating the OvenOven
💡Put things in the oven only once it's reached temperature, after the heating light has gone off: an oven that hasn't reached temperature changes baking times, and the bake burns outside or stays underbaked.

Spread the strips of the chicken on the baking sheet, side by side.
