Cooking Instructions
- 1
Season chicken pieces with the salt and pepper and then dust on both sides with the flour.
- 2
Preheat pot to medium high, add oil, then brown chicken, 4 to 5 minutes a side, or until each side is golden brown.
Remove chicken from pot and set aside.
- 3
Add onion and garlic and saute for about 3 minutes until onion turns translucent.
Then add tomatoes, bay, oregano, and lemon zest, give it a stir, and let the herbs bloom for a minute or so.
- 4
Add the chicken back along with olives, olive brine, liquid (stock or water).
Give it a gentle stir and adjust salt seasoning if needed.
Turn heat down to medium, cover, and simmer for 20 to 25 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- 5
Add potatoes and try to submerge them as under the liquid as much as you can.
You might like to add another 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon of salt to lend a little extra seasoning for the potatoes.
Simmer, with lid askew for another 20 minutes or so, stirring occasionally.
- 6
Sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley (and maybe add a couple of lemon wedges for squeezing onto the chicken right before eating).
Enjoy with your choice of pasta, rice, or crusty bread. :)

A simple and tasty stew I've been making for ages. I usually add what I have on hand - if I don't have good olives I'll substitute cannellini beans. Anything fresh gets thrown in - fresh tomatoes, fresh herbs, a handful of spinach.....Hope you enjoy : )

Moroccan Chicken Stew Moroccan Chicken Stew
A one pot meal filled with great and interesting flavors. It’s not thick like a beef stew or gumbo, so it can be served up on a large platter for entertaining dinner guests. I like using whole chicken thighs; it’s cheaper, and produces a juicier taste.

Leftovers leftovers leftovers. I made smothered chicken last night. My recipe is on Cookpad. I used all my rice last night but I did have half a bag of egg noodles. Dug in the freezers and found frozen partial bags of peas and corn lol par for the course with me. Since not everyone will have the leftover smothered chicken I’ll write this the way I would do it the easy way.

This recipe grew out of my want for something like chicken and dumplings without the all day affair that represents. My family loves this meal, I make it in a 5qt Dutch oven, and the stew is gone before bedtime.
