From sousou blog on You Tube. A Moroccan dish. The water to rice ratio seems off to me here in USA. I think some countries soak their rice before cooking. Ingredients:
2 tablespoons olive oil |
1 onion, chopped |
2 lbs chicken, cut up in 6 inch pieces |
1/2 teaspoon turmeric |
1/2 teaspoon pepper |
1/2 teaspoon ginger |
1 stick cinnamon |
1/2 cup water |
6 zucchini, cut in half round ones |
1 1/2 cups rice |
1 cup water |
Directions:
1. Saute onion in olive oil.
2. Add chicken pieces; bone in is okay.
3. Saute 5 minutes.
4. Add turmeric, pepper, ginger, cinnamon stick, and 1/2 cup water.
5. Cover and simmer 5 minutes.
6. Add zucchini rounds; cook 20 minutes covered.
7. Remove chicken and zucchini.
8. Add rice and 1 cup water.
9. Cook covered for 15 minutes.
10. Add chicken and zucchini to top of rice; simmer 5 more minutes.
11. Put rice in a bowl; surround with zucchini cut side down.
12. Top with one piece of chicken.
