Print Recipe

Ingredients

1 c ripe tomatoes, sliced .
1/2 tsp ground ginger .
1 c dried garbanzo beans, soaked overnight & drained .
1 c dark raisins .
1 c onions, sliced in half moons .
1 tsp turmeric .
4 c water .
2 lbs chickens, cut in 6 pieces loose skin & fat removed I use 2 whole large leg quarters .
1/2 c flat leaf parsley, sliced .
1 tbsp vegetable oil .
1 tsp black pepper .
1/2 tsp salt

Directions

Step #1 Saute the onions in the oil until they just begin to take on color.
Step #2 Add the spices & saute 45 seconds.
Step #3 Place the remaining ingredients, except the raisins, in the bottom of the couscousier (cuscus) or large stew pot/dutch oven.
Step #4 Bring to a boil, then simmer over low heat/flame for 45 mins.
Step #5 Add the raisins & let simmer for 15-30 mins carefully or until very tender.
Step #6 Serve the chicken, raisins, chick peas, & sauce together in a dish or bowl over couscous.
Step #7 Servings depend upon the amount of couscous used.
Step #8 For 5-8 people I used 1kg.
Step #9 If your chicken is falling off the bone as it should be, then with the other ingredients this should heartily serve 6-8.
Step #10 We don't take 1/2 a chicken leg quarter for one person but rather small pieces of meat along with the other ingredients & the couscous.
