Fantastic it goes well with everything I even tried it in a wrap just like the video showed.
Try adding some sundried tomatoes to this and i gurantee you you wont regret it it adds a lot of more juicy flavours and taste good with the chicken and onions.
Dabbed a bit of hot sauce on top and the taste was FIRE
Spicy is my middle name! can't wait to try this out when i get home it looks delish.
Nearly burned my tongue off with this one so going to add lets spicy mixture next time
This was sooo good just amazing
Better than the tandoori chicken with peanut sauce..thank god that one was so freaking weird and the peanut taste was not all my thing, this atleast has a bunch of flavors and a more colorful appearance.
Obsessing over the flavors in this meal very yummy and good idea.
Mouth watering delicious meal you have here thanks so much
Wonderful meal had it for lunch yesterday at work very filling and tasty.
Perefction in a single dish couldn't ask for anything more nor would I want to!
Good but not my type of meal.
Really good with some squeezed lemon on the top too and even sundried tomatos.
Chicken bowls are my favorite they are so filling and simple to make, thanks for sharing it.
I love Moroccan meals!
