I have added some new recipes to my list so take a look.  We are off to Peru the end of August and I understand that the Peruvians have a "love affair" with potatoes.  Check back in early September as I will have some recipes to share.  Please feel free to send me your favorite dish - regina@granniesonsafari.com and I will post it on our site.  Happy cooking!

Moroccan Spiced Chicken Tagine

If you can't find a package of thighs at the market, buy whole chickens. You (or the butcher) can cut up the chickens and freeze the leftover pieces for another use.

Ingredients

3/4 pound boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into 1/2-inch strip
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 cup chopped red onion
1 medium-sized zucchini, shredded
1/3 cup drained and chopped sun-dried tomatoes
2 1/2 cups chicken broth
1 can (15'/2 0unces) garbanzo beans, rinsed and drained
3 tablespoon golden raisins
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 teaspoon crumbled saffron threads
1/2 teaspoon ground allspice
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground white pepper
1 cup uncooked couscous
3 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro leaves, for garnish


Directions

Sprinkle the chicken with salt. Place the olive oil in a large Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the chicken, onion, zucchini and tomatoes. Cook, stirring, until the chicken is no longer pink and the vegetables are tender, about 4 to 6 minutes. Add all remaining ingredients except the couscous and cilantro. Bring to a boil over high heat Stir in the couscous, cover, and remove from the heat. Let stand for 5 to 7 minutes or until the liquid is absorbed. Fluff the couscous with a fork. Serve sprinkled with cilantro.


Serves 6 to 8. Per serving (based on 6)
