Method (preview)

1. 1

   Brown the chicken in butter and oil in a large, heavy skillet over moderate heat.

2. 2

   Add the garlic cloves, spices, and coriander (chopped fine).

3. 3

   Cook for about 10 minutes, turing the chicken pieces occasionally to distribute sauce evenly.

4. 4

   Stir in enough water to cover, about 1 cup, and simmer over low heat, adding more water if necessary until the chicken is tender.

5. 5

   Add olives and lemon and cook over somewhat lower heat for 8-10 more minutes, or until sauce is reduced.

6. 6

   Serve over rice or couscous.

7. 7

   I usually use boneless chicken instead of boney chicken pieces.
