Grilled Moroccan Chicken is a mixture of sweet and savory flavours. There is no sugar added to the marinade, but it is the spices that add the sweetness….cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, coriander and cumin.
Those spices mixed with a plain yogurt keep the chicken very moist.
A great summer barbecued main course. Serve it with Vegetable Fried Rice (tomorrow’s recipe) and a green salad.
