Just received this from my friend in Austin Tx. She loves to cook as much as I do and to me, this looks like something I would adore. Haven't tried it yet, but will.
Moroccan Chicken
1 T cumin
2 t ground coriander
1 t chili powder
1 t salt
1/4 t pepper
1 lb. boneless/skinless chicken pieces, cut into bite sized chunks
1/4 c olive oil, divided
4 cloves garlic, thin sliced
1/4 c lemon juice
Zest from 2 lemons
(2) 16 oz. cans garbanzo beans, rinsed and drained
3 scallions, thin sliced
1 bell pepper, diced
handful fresh parsley
Combine the first 4 ingredients in a plastic bag. Add chicken and shake. Heat 1 T olive oil in a pan. Add garlic and sauté until golden brown, and then transfer to a small bowl. Add chicken to the pan and sauté until cooked about 5 to 6 minutes, then transfer to a large bowl. In the small bowl with the garlic, add lemon peel, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Drizzle in 3 T olive oil in a thin stream whisking to combine. Add beans, scallions and bell pepper to the chicken. Stir in lemon dressing and mix in parsley. Put in pitas and top with plain yogurt or sour cream.
