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.

HORSERADISH PEPPER RUB
This is a very flavorful rub for beef. However, I must caution you it does have a bit of a bite! If you like things a little spicy you really need to give this a try. It is wonderful on grilled steaks, broiled steaks and roasts cooked both in the oven or the crock pot. Ya gotta love that.

Tips:
- Choose the right pepper: Aleppo pepper is the traditional choice for this rub, but you can also use other mild chili peppers like paprika or guajillo.
- Toast the spices: Toasting the spices before grinding them will bring out their flavor.
- Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs like thyme, oregano, and rosemary add a bright, herbaceous flavor to the rub.
- Let the rub marinate: The longer the rub marinates on the meat, the more flavor it will develop.
- Cook the meat over indirect heat: This will help to prevent the rub from burning.
