If you didn't know already, I love Moroccan food, like absolutely adore it! Morocco would probably be one of the most interesting countries I've visited in my travels. I went back for my 21st birthday on a trip with my sister, but I'd so love to go back again and revisit the markets and of course, the food!

What I loved about the food, was that, despite the fact that a lot of dishes were heavier dishes, the food still felt super light and fresh and jam-packed with flavour. They use a lot of spices in their cooking, and if you wander around the markets, you can smell the flavours of Morocco wafting through the air.

Ingredients

 

• 1 tablespoon plain all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon ground coriander
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon ground paprika
• ½ teaspoon salt
• ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1 lbs Foster Farms Boneless Skinless Chicken Thigh Fillets cut into 1"/2.5cm pieces
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 2 yellow/brown onions cut into wedges
• 3 garlic cloves minced
• 28 oz can crushed tomatoes undrained
• 15 oz can chickpeas rinsed and drained
• 1 ½ cups water
• ½ cup raisins
• ⅓ cup small pitted ripe olives
• 3 cups hot cooked couscous
• ¼ cup snipped fresh cilantro

Instructions

 

• Combine the flour, coriander seed, cumin, paprika, cinnamon and salt and pepper in a small bowl.
• Add the chicken, and coat until well combined.
• In a 4-quart Dutch Oven, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
• Saute the onions and garlic for 4-6 minutes or until tender. Remove the onions and garlic from the pot with a slotted spoon, but keep the remaining oil.
• Add the chicken to the Dutch Oven, half at a time. Cook quickly until the chicken is lightly browned, stirring frequently.
• Return all the chicken and the onion mixture to the pan.
• Add tomatoes, chickpeas, water, raisins and olives.
• Bring to the boil, reduce heat, cover and simmer for about 10 minutes, or until chicken is tender.
• Serve over the cooked couscous and garnish with the cilantro.

Notes

To make the couscous, pour one cup of dried couscous into a heatproof bowl. Season with about ½ a teaspoon each of salt and pepper. Pour 1 cup of boiling hot water over the couscous and place a large plate over the bowl to trap the heat. Do not stir the couscous! Let the couscous sit for about 10 minutes, if there is still a lot of liquid, leave absorb further. Once it's ready, use a fork to roughly fluff up the couscous for serving.
