Ingredients
800 grams chicken - organic, skinless lovely legs or cutlets, trimmed
3 tbsp Moroccan spice mix
2 tbsp olive oil
1 onion - brown halved, thinly sliced
3 cloves garlic, crushed
400 grams mushrooms - brown, sliced
1 lemon halved, thinly sliced
100 grams olives, green, pitted
375 ml stock- chicken, reduced salt
3 tbsp almonds, flaked & toasted
quinoa to serve
Method

Toss chicken with half the spice mix and set aside for 5 minutes. Heat a deep large frying pan over high heat until hot. Add half the oil to the hot pan and cook the chicken, in batches, for 2-3 minutes each side or until light golden. Remove to plate.
Reduce heat to medium, add the remaining oil with onion, garlic and remaining spice mix, cook, stirring often for 3 minutes until softened. Add the mushrooms, cook, shaking the pan occasionally for 5 minutes until mushrooms are just tender.
Return the chicken to the pan, add the lemon, olives and 250ml of stock to pan, cover and cook over medium heat for 25-30 minutes, adding more stock if required or until chicken is cooked through. Scatter over the almonds and serve with quinoa or rice.
