Moroccan inspired chicken lemon & olives pita. This dish may not be strictly traditional, but draws its inspiration from classic flavors that go so well together! The intent is to reflect the ingredients and flavors of an ‘authentic’ Moroccan dish, yet in a different way. A quick week night dinner. Also a nice summer lunch for a backyard party. So easy you have to try it!
Moroccan cuisine is one of my favorite cuisines of the Mediterranean. I love its complexity married to its simplicity. I love that it tastes at once familiar and yet exotic. And like the rest of the Mediterranean, I love that it relies on fresh, whole food ingredients.
All the ingredients are really “to taste” and measures just offer a guideline! This is excellent served with a roasted chickpea and carrot salad.
