    Hobbyzu! I had to discover your recipe soooooo many years after posting this recipe and it's soooo a fantastic recipe. We enjoyed this dish like something holy! It was sooooo wonderful tasty and delicious!I prepared some homemade bread (my Recipe #449099). This was a perfect combination with the tasty sauce of your chicken.I had chicken with preserved lemons and olives in Fes (Marocco) and I prepared this several times without any recipe. Today I tried to find one in food.com and I found your recipe!Very similar to mine, but much more complete and tasty.Indeed, I did some changes: ground ginger instead of fresh one and from the beginning all the ingredients directly together.Please, please post more recipes!
