I found a recipe for Moroccan chicken that sounds sooo good. My question is what should I serve it with? Here is the recipe.
Ingredients
Instructions
Serves 4. Clean the chicken. Put the ginger, cinnamon, turmeric, a pinch of salt and pepper in a large pan with about 5 cups of water and the oil. Stir well, and then add the chicken with the liver plus the rest of the ingredients except the preserved fruit and olives. Cover and cook for 45 minutes, turning it over occasionally and adding more water if necessary. Then add the fruit peel and olives and cook a further 15 minutes or until the meat comes away from the bone. Remove the liver, mash it, return it to the pan to thicken the sauce. The sauce should be thick, but not dry. Transfer the chicken to a serving plate and pour the sauce over the top. Serve hot
