North African Chicken
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 medium onion, chopped (about 1 cup frozen chopped onion)
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground red pepper
1 tablespoon honey
28 ounces canned crushed tomatoes
1 pound (or so) boneless, skinless, chicken breast
Heat olive oil in a wide, deep pan over medium-high heat. Add onion and cook,
stirring occasionally, until golden, about 5 or 10 minutes. Add spices, salt,
pepper, honey and tomatoes. Cook, stirring occasionally, about 10 minutes.
As the tomatoes cook, cut the chicken into 1-inch chunks (more or less). When
the sauce has cooked 10 minutes, add the chicken and cook 10 minutes more, until
chicken chunks are cooked through.
Serve over couscous with something green, such as broccoli or brussels sprouts.
Serves four. |
