MAKE-BELIEVE MIDDLE EASTERN CHICKEN

Make-Believe Middle Eastern Chicken image

A sumptuous dish with a Middle Eastern flair. The spicy aroma fills you with passionate thoughts. Serve over white rice or couscous. This chicken is also a perfect complement to falafel. The spices can be adjusted; I use much more cumin than I specified in the recipe.
