The basis for this recipe began from a recipe found on McCormick's website. I've modified it a bit to suit my own personal need (and ingredients at hand). It's basically a Moroccan spice chicken recipe made easy. Read more My personal preference was to serve this dish over rice, but you may wish to try couscous. Suit yourself. Either way, it's delicious. See less
Ingredients

How to make it
- Prepare the white rice: In a rice cooker, add 1 cup white rice, 1 tsp salt, 2 cup water. Click on.
- Prepare the seasoned dredge: In a small bowl, mix the cinnamon, seasoned salt, cumin, tumeric and 1/2 tbl flour. Stir. Remove 1 tsp spice mixture and set aside in a finger bowl.
- Spread the seasoned dredge mixture on a paper plate and use to dredge the chicken slices. Set the chicken slices aside.
- Heat 2 tb olive oil in a skillet. When hot, add the chicken slices and friy. Turn as the slices brown. When white through and through, remove and dry on a paper towel.
- Add the remaining flour to a small bowl and add several tbl chicken broth. Stir.
- Add the remaining chicken broth to the skillet. When bubbly, add the broth/flour mixture and allow the mix to thicken into a gravy. Sprinkle with the seasoning spice mixture.
- When the rice is finished, remove and serve with chicken breast slice and gravy mix.
- To be authentic, one would add the dates and almonds to the gravy. If you try this, let me know what it's like. I didn't have any on hand to try. The simple gravy was flavorful enough for me.
