Directions
Moroccan Chicken on Saffron Rice (Ww), I haven’t eaten a lot of Moroccan food, but this looks great From Weight Watchers New 365 Day Menu Cookbook , We really enjoyed this dish!! I made as directed with one exception I didn’t use the orange sections personal preference I did find however, that the cumin/cinnamon could have been increased to round out the flavour a bit more It seemed to get lost in the background I love the combination of cumin/cinnamon together and is a very important part of Moroccan cooking That is the only thing I will change next time I make it It was quick and easy to put together Thank you lazyme for this wonderful keeper , I haven’t eaten a lot of Moroccan food, but this looks great From Weight Watchers New 365 Day Menu Cookbook
