    Million Dollar Chicken – Moroccan Style, This recipe originally won first prize ($1 Million) in a national cook-off of some sort (I think Pillsbury) several years ago I can see why – it is a wonderful combination of flavours The recipe is quite easy to make and is very economical I have also substituted the chicken thighs for boneless, skinless breasts and it works just fine The thighs are definitely better though as they are more moist Do try this – you’ll love it , Stretch the sauce, by adding a 28 oz can of diced tomatoes , used raisins because I didn’t have currants I added a 28 oz can of diced tomatoes to stretch the sauce and avoid prepping a separate side
