Authentic & Easy Moroccan Chicken with Ras el Hanout
A Trip to Morocco in One Pot: Easy Chicken with Ras el Hanout
Busy weeknights can be a culinary conundrum - you crave a flavourful, satisfying meal, but time and energy are scarce. Fear not, home cooks! This Moroccan Chicken with Ras el Hanout is the solution to your weeknight woes, delivering a taste of North Africa with minimal effort.
The secret lies in the spice blend, Ras el Hanout. Translating to "head of the shop" in Arabic, this fragrant mixture is a closely guarded recipe among spice merchants. Though the exact blend varies by family, it always features a warm, complex medley of spices - think ginger, cinnamon, cardamom, and a touch of floral sweetness.mWhether you opt for whole pieces, thighs, or breasts, the meat will soak up the spices for at least 3 hours, or ideally overnight, for maximum flavour infusion.
Once marinated, the chicken takes centre stage in a simple one-pot sear and simmer. As it cooks, you can add in complementary vegetables like onions, carrots, and chickpeas for a complete meal. The final touch? An optional squeeze of fresh lemon and a handful of chopped cilantro, which lend a bright, refreshing contrast to the warm spices.
With minimal hands-on time and practically effortless preparation, this Moroccan Chicken with Ras el Hanout is the ideal solution for those busy weeknights when you crave a homemade, flavor-packed meal. Transport your taste buds to the vibrant spice markets of North Africa, all from the comfort of your own kitchen.

My sessions with Kelly blew my mind.
As someone who has been studying nutrition for a long time, I couldn’t believe how much information I took away.
