Place chicken pieces into shallow baking pan, skin side up. Sprinkle all ingredients evenly over top of chicken. Squeeze juice from lemon and pour over top. Cut remaining lemon rind into pieces and arrange throughout chicken. Cover with foil and bake at 375F for 40 minutes. Remove foil and bake an additional 15 minutes. Try eating the garlic. You will find it surprisingly mild, tender, and buttery or spread cloves on sliced french bread.
