Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).

In a bowl, combine garlic, cumin, paprika, oregano, lime juice, soy sauce, olive oil, salt, and black pepper to create a marinade.

Add chicken thighs to the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Let marinate for at least 30 minutes.

Place marinated chicken thighs on a baking sheet, skin side up.

Sprinkle chopped onion and jalapeño around the chicken on the baking sheet.

Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through and the skin is crispy.

Remove from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Garnish with fresh cilantro before serving.
