Serves 6
- 6 skinless, boneless chicken breasts (about 6 ounces each)
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

Preheat oven to 400F. Spray a baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray. Place the chicken on the prepared baking sheet and brush with the vegetable oil.

Combine the paprika, salt, cinnamon, cumin, tarragon and pepper in a medium bowl; mix well. Coat the chicken evenly with the paprika mixture and bake for 15 minutes.
