Moroccan Chicken - Tonua Brown

This is one of my favorite chicken casserole type dishes. It's easy to make and delicious. I assume it gets its name from the combination of spices and saffron rice.

Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cooking Time: 45 minutes to brown chicken/20 minutes to bake
Oven Temperature: 350°F
Serves: 4-8 people

Ingredients:
  • 1 whole chicken (or substitute with all white or dark meat)
  • 1 green pepper
  • 2 tomatoes
  • 1 small onion
  • 1 package saffron rice
  • 1 chicken bouillon cube
  • 1 garlic clove
  • To taste:
    • parsley
    • oregano
    • salt
    • pepper
    • Tabasco
Directions:

Skin chicken and brown in oil. Cut green pepper, tomato and onions. Add vegetables to chicken with garlic, parsley, oregano, salt, pepper and Tabasco. Lower heat and cook covered in skillet 45 minutes.

Cook rice with salt, pepper and chicken bouillon cube. Place rice in casserole dish, cover with chicken, vegetables and juices.
