In a mixing bowl, combine the marinade ingredients.

Transfer the chicken breasts and the marinade to a baking dish or a cast iron skillet. Sprinkle 1/3 of RawSpiceBar's Za'atar Spices on top of chicken and another 1/3 to work underneath the skin of chicken breasts. You should have 1/3 left for later.
Place the chicken in the 400 degrees F heated-oven; roast for 40-45 minutes.
