Make-Believe Middle Eastern Chicken image

A sumptuous dish with a Middle Eastern flair. The spicy aroma fills you with passionate thoughts. Serve over white rice or couscous. This chicken is also a perfect complement to falafel. The spices can be adjusted; I use much more cumin than I specified in the recipe.

I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong, but my chicken never comes out as flavorful as I'd like it to be.

I'm not a fan of cilantro, so I omitted it from the recipe. It was still very flavorful.

I'm allergic to nuts, so I substituted the almonds for sunflower seeds. It was still delicious!

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my chicken came out dry. I think I might have overcooked it.
