    Moroccan Lemon Chicken, Looking for something different for a change? Try this “unique” dish. Don’t let the unusual combination of ingredients scare you., This dish made a lovely dinner that everyone enjoyed. I did make some small changes though. used whole green olive instead of pimento stuffed, preserved lemon for the lemon zest, & doubled the amount of paprika. Made for Went to Market Tag, Beautiful entree. I cut the cinnamon to 1/8 teaspoon personal preference & used boneless chicken breasts- sliced in half lengthwise and cooked for 1/2 the time. This has a nice amount of flavor, but is not over-the-top flavor explosion despite the combo of ingredients. A good dish that would suit many taste-buds. We enjoyed this.
