Ingredients:

Serving

3 lbs cold chicken pieces, thighs and breasts
1 tbsp cumin
1 tbsp paprika
1 tbsp curry powder
2 tsp ground ginger
1 tsp cayenne pepper
6 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley
2 lemons , juice and zest of
1/4 tsp red pepper flakes
4 tbsp all-purpose flour
5 roma tomatoes, chopped
15 pitted olives , of your choice
15 pitted dried plums, chopped
2 lemons, cut into wedges
1/4 cup olive oil
1 cup chicken stock
8 lemon wedges, to serve with

Directions:

Pre-heat the oven to 325.
Combine the cumin, paprika, ginger, curry, cayenne, garlic, parley, lemon juice, zest and red pepper flakes.
Remove the chicken pieces from the fridge, place in a large baking dish and combine with the above mixture.
Let marinate for 20 minutes at room temperature.
Important note: do not leave the cold chicken mix out at room temperature for more than 20 minutes or the lemon juice will start to mess up the chicken’s consistency.
Add the flour to chicken mixture and toss well.
Add the tomatoes, olives, lemon wedges, olive oil, dried fruit and broth to the dish.
Give it a quick toss and spread out into a single layer.
Bake uncovered for 1 hour and 30 minutes.
Let sit at room temperature for 10 minutes before serving.
I like to serve mine over couscous with lots of the sauce the dish makes.
Enjoy!
