TRADITIONAL MOROCCAN CHICKEN



Traditional Moroccan Chicken image

I have tried several recipes for chicken with lemon & olives but it never did taste the same as I had while in Morocco. When visiting my Moroccan sister-in-law this week she showed me how it is traditionally made. Many times it is served with fried potatoes on top. (Peel & cut the potatoes into french fry length then fry until golden brown.) Smen is rancid butter similar to ghee but with spices added. It can be purchased online or at a Middle Eastern store. Prep time does not include marinating time.

Provided by FDADELKARIM

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 45m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 24

1 whole chicken
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 teaspoon smen, softened
2 large garlic cloves, peeled & grated
1 tablespoon fresh parsley, finely chopped
1/2 teaspoon turmeric
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
2 -3 onions, chopped
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon canola oil
2 teaspoons ginger
1 teaspoon turmeric
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon powdered saffron
1/2 teaspoon smen
1 tablespoon fresh parsley, finely chopped
1/2 preserved lemon, rinsed (rind only, sliced)
1/2 cup green olives, cracked & pitted
1/2 preserved lemon, fleshly insides (remove seeds)
1/2 teaspoon smen
1 teaspoon butter
1 pinch saffron

Steps:

  • Poke small holes in the chicken with a skewer. Mix the ingredients for the marinade then coat the meat & skin of the chicken with the marinade. Let sit in the refrigerator for at least 6 hours.
  • Remove the flesh from the preserved lemon to be used in the browning mixture.
  • Place the chicken in a large pressure cooker. Then add all the ingredients for the sauce to the cooker along with enough water to reach halfway up the chicken. Seal with the lid & cook for 20 minutes (after it begins to hiss). Poke with a fork to make sure that the chicken is done & no blood leaks out.
  • Mix the ingredients for the browning mixture in a small bowl. Once the chicken is done cooking remove it & place on a baking pan. Coat both sides of the chicken with the browning mixture then cook in the oven on 350 degrees until golden brown.
  • Simmer the sauce over medium heat until it thickens, around 10 minutes. If you want your sauce to be more brown in color add 1/4-1/2 tsp of sugar to the pot while simmering.
  • Place the chicken in the center of a large serving dish. Pour the sauce & fried potatoes (if using) over the chicken. Serve hot with thick bread.

MOROCCAN STYLE CHICKEN



Moroccan Style Chicken image

I was watching the Food Network one day, and there were two episodes which focused on Moroccan style dishes. They both sounded really good, so over the next few months, I fused the two main recipes into one. This is really nice served with couscous, roasted acorn squash, and a creamy mint yoghurt sauce.

1 onion, chopped
1/2 cup dried apricot, cut into bite sized pieces
2 cups chicken stock

  • Add first 8 ingredients to a gallon sized zip top bag. Squoosh around (yes, that is the technical term) to coat the chicken evenly.
  • Heat your largest skillet over medium high heat. When it is nice and hot, add the chicken to the pan, spreading it in a single even layer.
  • Brown chicken; turn and brown other side, about 4 minutes per side.
  • Scoot the chicken to one side of the pan and add the onions. Saute until just carmelized.
  • Add apricots and chicken stock; stir gently to combine. Bring to a boil, then turn heat down and simmer 10 minutes.

  • Pat chicken pieces dry and season lightly with kosher salt on both sides. Now, rub the chicken all over with the spice rub (if you kept the skins, make sure to apply the spice rub underneath the skins for best flavor.) Set aside in room temperature for 40 to 45 minutes or so (or, if you have the time, cover and refrigerate for 2 hours or overnight. If you do this, take chicken out of fridge and let it rest at room temperature for a few minutes before cooking.)

6 MOROCCAN CHICKEN RECIPES FOR SPECIAL OCCASIONS - THE …

From thespruceeats.com
Estimated Reading Time 3 mins
  • Moroccan Couscous With Chicken. Although it's a weekly family meal for many Moroccans, couscous with chicken is also a favorite to serve at social gatherings and special occasions.
  • Moroccan Chicken Bastilla - Famous Chicken Pie. Arguably one of Morocco's most famous dishes, Moroccan chicken Bastilla is an incredibly tasty fusion of flavors and textures.
  • Chicken Tagine With Dried Apricots. Aromatic spices and fresh or dried fruit pair beautifully in a number of Moroccan tagines, making them a popular offering for company meals.
  • Chicken With Preserved Lemon and Olives. A quintessential Moroccan dish, you'll see the chicken with preserved lemon and olives prepared in a number of ways–stovetop in a conventional pot; in a clay or ceramic tagine; or roasted in the oven while the onion sauce cooks separately on the stove.
  • Seffa Medfouna. Sweet and savory lovers will thank you for treating them to the spectacular dish of seffa medfouna. Seffa is the name of the broken vermicelli noodles, which are steamed until plump and tender.
  • Chicken Rfissa. This Moroccan comfort food favorite of chicken rfissa is also a fairly common choice for casual company dinners. Although often humble in appearance–it is, after all, a chicken and lentil stew served over shredded bread or pastry–it can be dressed up as shown here in a variation known as bormache.
