Easy as pie. Although, pies aren’t actually that easy, especially if you’re planning on making your own pastry. So easy as stew, which is technically what I did here.
This was really quite quick and very enjoyable. Great I think if you have people round last minute.
I rolled the chicken legs and thighs in some of the spices and browned them in the pan a couple at a time. The in the same pan, fry onion until softened then add garlic, ginger, paprika, cumin, tumeric and cinnamon. Then add stock, some fruit (dates here), rinsed kalamata olives, Harissa paste, honey, preserved lemons if you can, bring to the boil and add the chicken again. Simmer for about and hour, maybe a bit longer. Then at the end I bunged a l load of herbs in it and served with couscous.
I love the fragrant spices with the meat and the sweetness the sauce takes on from the fruit. I can’t imagine that this isn’t really healthy either which is a bonus.
