Description
This is a lovely traditional Moroccan Chicken dish that blends all the flavors of Africa.



Ingredients

 * 1 roasting Chicken, jointed
 * butter or oil
 * salt and black pepper
 * 1 teaspoon ground ginger
 * 1/4 teaspoon saffron
 * 2 onions, finely chopped
 * 3 tablespoons finely chopped parsley
 * 6 hard boiled eggs, shelled
 * 4oz blanched almonds

Directions
In a large pan, combine the Chicken with about 2 tablespoons butter or oil, salt, pepper, ginger, saffron, onions and the parsley.

Bring it to the boil for a couple of minutes before reducing the heat and simmering gently for one hour. When it's done, the Chicken will be well cooked and the sauce reduced.

In a small pan, fry the almonds in a small knob of butter until brown.

Transfer the Chicken to a large dish and pour the sauce over it.

Arrange the eggs on top for garnish, along with the fried almonds.
