Preparation
In small bowl, whisk together oil, parsley, thyme, lemon rind and juice, salt and pepper; brush over chicken.
(Make-ahead: Cover and refrigerate for up to 24 hours; add 5 minutes to roasting time.)
Place chicken, skin side up, on foil-lined rimmed baking sheet. Roast in 400°F (200°C) oven for 15 to 20 minutes or until golden and no longer pink inside. Broil, watching carefully to avoid scorching, until deep golden brown, about 2 minutes. Let stand for 2 minutes.
Meanwhile, divide spinach among plates; top each with chicken. Cut cheese into quarters; place on chicken.
