Mourad's Moroccan Spiced Tomato & Herb Braising Sauce

In the kitchens of Morocco and North Africa, richly spiced charmoula is a traditional simmering sauce for poultry and fish. Our classic version of this savory red sauce was developed exclusively for us by Moroccan-born chef Mourad Lahlou, owner of San Francisco's award-winning Aziza restaurant. It incorporates a classic blend of tomatoes, olive oil, lemon juice, herbs and peppery spices. Traditionally used in tagines, charmoula also works well as a braising sauce for poultry, lamb, meatballs, fish and shrimp-or try it as a poaching sauce for eggs. 21 oz. Made in USA. A Williams-Sonoma exclusive.

We used the recipe for chicken charmoula on the bottle (also came on a card from the store) but added my own twist. I love Wms-Sonoma Wild porcini sea salt so I seasoned chicken breast (instead of legs and skin) and seared the breasts and cut up. Then I simmered in the sauce but added stewed tomatoes for some texture. I added chickpeas, small potatoes, cauliflower and more seasonings and turned out amazing. It's great with couscous and even better the next day. 4 stars because of price.
Pros: Easy to Prepare, Authentic, Quality, Flavor, Healthy, Great Gift
Cons: Amount, price
