Moroccan Chicken Dance

No it’s Moroccan Chicken Smothered in Olives.

The chicken is not really from Morocco and I didn’t really smother it with olives. More like, I put the olives in the casserole. Don’t know why smothered is the word.  But hey, it works. It was an amazing dish!

I got the recipe from Saveur.  I originally was just planning on making some pasta with ready made sauce (sacrilege!) since I just got back from the gym, but Nick said he just bought some chicken and it’s in the fridge.  I came home went online to check Saveur.com and searched for some chicken recipes.  I found this and realized that I had all the ingredients!  I didn’t have the green olives so just substituted it with the Kalamata ones that Nick just got from Costco.  One thing I’m sad about is I forgot to garnish it with the parsley. I was too hungry that I completely forgot. Oh well, next time.

I recommend this dish to anyone who wants to make a fast hearty dinner. I’ve already decided that this will be one of those dishes that I’ll be making for our future little kiddies.
