Ingredients

2 lbs chicken, skin on, bone-in thighs or legs (see notes, for boneless, skinless options )
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 1/2 teaspoons salt (use 1 teaspoon salt per pound of chicken plus an extra 1/2 teaspoon for the onions)
1-2 teaspoons cracked pepper
2 tablespoons Lebanese 7-spice ( see below)
1 extra-large red onion, sliced into 1/2 inch wedges
4 garlic cloves, rough chopped
1 tablespoon preserved lemon, chopped (totally optional)
1 lemon, sliced thinly
--
1/4 cup Marcona almonds, or slivered almonds or pinenuts
parsley for garnish
1 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon allspice
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon coriander
1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon cardamom

Steps:

Preheat oven to 400 F (see notes for grilling)
Place the chicken in a bowl and toss with olive oil, salt, and 7-spice mix. Add onion, garlic, preserved lemon and sliced lemon and toss again well. Spread out on a parchment-lined sheet-pan.
Bake for 35-45 minutes- or until cooked through. Broil for a few minutes to get the skin crispy and nicely golden, turning if necessary (especially if using skin-on chicken)
While the chicken is baking, warm and toast the almonds/pinenuts in a little butter or olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
Place the fragrant chicken on a platter, scattering with the onions and lemon slices (which are edible.) Pour any juices from the pan, over top. Garnish with the toasted nuts and sprinkle with a few parsley leaves.
