Ingredients:
- 2 chicken legs , pieces
- 1 lemon
- 1 small knob ginger, peeled and finely chopped
- 2 tsp chermoula mixed spice
Directions:
- Place a large frying pan over medium heat with 1 tbsp of oil.
- Lightly season the chicken and cook, skin side down, for about 5 mins on one side, until golden.
- Turn over, then tip the onion into the pan.
- Cook for another 5 mins until the onion is soft and chicken golden all over.
- Meanwhile, halve the lemon, then cut 1 half into quarters.
- Finely chop 1 quarter (leaving the skin on) and tip into a pestle and mortar or small blender. Pound together with remaining oil, garlic, ginger and chermoula to make a paste.
- Dollop into the frying pan and cook 1 min more until you can smell the spices.
- Pour over the chicken or vegetable stock and honey, then bring to the boil.
- Turn down the heat, cover and leave to cook 20-30 mins until chicken is cooked through and the sauce has thickened and become glossy (you may need to uncover the pan for the final 5 mins of cooking).
- Stir through the olives and squeeze over the juice of half the lemon. Sprinkle with coriander and serve with couscous or bread.
