MOROCCAN CHICKEN SALAD
Just as a little saffron, garlic and paprika can conjure the flavors of Spain, so too will preserved lemons, cumin, mint and olives evoke Morocco. This salad and the accompanying couscous can be doubled or tripled to anchor a generous buffet. Both can be assembled a couple of hours in advance and set aside on a kitchen counter. Serve them at room temperature.

Steps:
- Combine cumin, paprika and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a shallow bowl, and lightly coat chicken with spices. Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a sauté pan. Sear chicken on medium-high about 90 seconds on the "skin" side, turn, add wine, reduce heat to very low, cover and braise 25 minutes. Remove chicken and juices to a clean bowl.
- Add bell pepper and onion to the pan and sauté on low about 10 minutes, until softened. Add zucchini and olives and sauté until zucchini starts to soften, about 5 minutes. Stir in harissa, lemon juice, honey and 3 tablespoons olive oil. Remove from heat.
- Using your fingers and a paring knife, remove chicken from the bones and tear meat in strips. Place chicken and juices in a bowl, along with vegetable mixture from the sauté pan and preserved lemon peel. Toss ingredients together and set aside.
- Heat remaining tablespoon of oil in a 2-quart saucepan. Add couscous and remaining salt and stir over low heat 2 to 3 minutes. Pour in 1 1/4 cups boiling water, stir, cover and set aside 15 minutes. Uncover, fluff couscous with a fork, stir over low heat a few minutes to dry it, then fold in half the mint. Transfer chicken to a serving platter, scatter with remaining mint and serve with couscous in a bowl alongside, all at room temperature.

Steps:

- Toss the chickpeas in the same large bowl with 1 tablespoon olive oil and the remaining 1 teaspoon ras el hanout. Add to the baking sheet with the other vegetables and stir. Broil until tender, about 5 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes.
- Squeeze the juice from the broiled lemon into a large bowl. Add 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper, then whisk in the remaining 1/4 cup olive oil. Add the chicken, dried apricots, olives and almonds and toss to coat. Add the broiled vegetables and chickpeas and arugula-spinach blend; toss.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 190C/fan 170C/gas 5. Mix 1 tsp of the cinnamon with the cumin and coriander in a small bowl. Heat the oil in a frying pan, add the onion, then quickly fry until lightly coloured. Add the pine nuts, then fry until lightly toasted. Stir in ½ the spice mix, the raisins and the juice of ½ the lemon. Heat through, stirring, then remove from the heat.
- Open out the chicken thighs and spoon a little stuffing onto each. Fold the chicken meat over to enclose the stuffing, then secure each thigh with a couple of cocktail sticks. Place in a non-stick roasting tin with the cocktail sticks underneath, then sprinkle with the remaining lemon juice and spice mix. Bake for 30-35 mins until the chicken is tender and golden.
- To make the salad, tip the carrot into a bowl. Using a sharp knife, remove the zest and pith from the oranges, then cut into segments between membranes. Do this over the bowl to catch the juice, letting the segments drop in. Sprinkle with the reserved cinnamon and a little black pepper, then mix well.
- Divide the salad leaves between 4 plates, spoon over the salad, then sprinkle over the coriander leaves. Place the chicken alongside and serve.
