Directions
Traditional Moroccan Chicken, 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 , 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
