MOROCCAN CHICKEN WITH TOMATOES AND
POTATOES
1 pkg chicken (3 or 4 boneless breasts or a selection of bone-in breasts and/or thighs)
3-4 baking potatoes, peeled and cubed
1 can diced tomatoes (or 2-3 large fresh tomatoes, diced
3-5 carrots or parsnips, quartered
1 large onion, diced
1-2 cloves garlic, diced
1/2-1 red bell pepper, diced
1 cup peas (if desired)
1/4 cup olive oil
parsley (1/4 cup fresh or 2 tbs. dried)
1 1/2 tsp. paprika
a few pinches of saffron, if you've got it
salt and pepper to taste
In a large pot, heat oil and sauté onion and garlic. Add chicken, tomatoes, red pepper, parsley, paprika, saffron, and 1/2 cup water. Cover and cook about an hour (until chicken is thoroughly cooked and just beginning to shred when handled much), stirring occasionally.
Add water as necessary to keep mixture wet and saucy (maybe 2 cups total by the end of the process). Add potatoes, carrots/parsnips, and peas and cook for another 20-30 minutes, or until potatoes and carrots are completely cooked. Salt and pepper as you like.
Now, if you want to eat in authentic Moroccan style, dish onto a large plate and serve with lots of bread (something crusty like French works well).
