Moroccan Chicken

Try this spicy dish as surprising twist!


1 pound chicken thighs 
3/4 cup scallions chopped
4 cloves of garlic minced
2 inch piece fresh ginger grated
1 1/2 tsp coarse salt
1 tsp pepper
1 1/2 tsp paprika
1 1/2 tsp cumin
1/2 tsp ground coriander 
1/4 tsp cayenne 
1/4 tsp cinnamon 
2 Tablespoons olive oil
1 1/2 cups chicken broth

Mix the scallion, garlic and spices with the oil to make a paste. Coat 
all the chicken in the paste and marinate overnight. (or as long as 
long as you have)
Remove the chicken from the marinate and dry it well.
Heat a cast iron pan to medium high heat. Place the chicken thighs skin 
side down and sear 4-5 minutes. Turn the chicken over, add the stock 
and bake in a 350 degree oven 35-40 minutes

You only want the liquid to come  three quarters of the way, not 
covering the tops of the chicken.
