Moroccan Chicken with Saffron
Moroccan Chicken with Saffron
Ingredients:
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 tablespoons Sadaf olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Sadaf Moroccan Seasoning
- 1/4 teaspoon Sadaf Saffron Threads
- 1/4 cup chicken broth
- 1/4 cup freshly squeezed orange juice
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro or parsley for garnish
Instructions:
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, Moroccan seasoning, and saffron threads.
- Season the chicken breasts with the spice mixture.
- In a baking dish, add the chicken breasts, chicken broth, and orange juice.
- Bake the chicken for 20-25 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
- Remove the chicken from the oven and garnish with chopped fresh cilantro or parsley before serving.
Note: You can also add some vegetables like bell peppers, onions, or potatoes to the baking dish before adding the chicken. This dish goes well with couscous or other grain-based dishes as a side dish. The Morrocan seasoning will give a unique and exotic flavor to the dish, and the saffron will give a subtle aroma and a yellow color.
