Moroccan Chicken Thighs image

Another of my torn from a magazine & dutifully filed away recipes. Zaar World Tour II has certainly provided an impetus to clearing out my get-around-to-it box. This is from the 12/21/04 issue of Family Circle magazine.

Number Of Ingredients 11

12 skinless chicken thighs
3/4 teaspoon salt

1/8 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
1 3/4 cups chicken broth
1/2 cup white wine

Steps:

  • Season both sides of chicken with 1/4 teaspoon of the salt. Heat oil in a 12 inch skillet over medium high heat. Brown thighs half at a time, 3 minutes per side. Remove.
  • In drippings, saute onion 5 minutes. Add cumin, turmeric, cinnamon, cayenne & remaining salt. Cook 1 minute.
