Recipe for chicken marinade as seen in pic-a-day.

Charmoula is a marinade generally used in Moroccan, Tunisian and Algerian cooking. It is typically used to flavour seafood but I use it on chicken. My recipe calls for garlic, ginger root, cilantro leaves, parsley leaves, paprika, cumin, cayenne pepper, salt, olive oil and lemon juice. For a punchier flavor I add lemon zest. You just blend the ingredients in a food processor, smear all over chicken pieces, and allow to marinate 1 - 2 hours. Then the meat is baked for about 45 minutes. Fragrant and delicious! I like to serve it with rice pilaf.
