moroccan chicken with lemons and three types of olives. if you like sour/lemon flavours then this dish will be suitable for you. this dish is very easy and preparation time is only 10 mins and 30 mins to marinate. the recipe requires 1 chicken cut into serving pieces but i used 8 chicken pieces (thighs & drumsticks) with skin off. i don't normally have fresh coriander regularly available but i used 1 teaspoon of coriander powdered. it comes from a book called 'the olive oil cookbook' by marlena spieler.
