Slow-Cooker Moroccan-Spiced Chicken image

Dark meat chicken delivers tons of flavor at a low cost, and a long simmer in this spicy marinade packs extra punch. Preparation time includes overnight marinating. To complete this meal, you can serve the chicken and vegetables over cooked couscous. Drizzle it with some of the cooking liquid and garnish with sliced almonds!

The chicken was a bit dry. I think I should have added more liquid to the slow cooker.

I found this recipe to be a bit bland. I would add more spices next time.

This dish is a great way to warm up on a cold winter day. The spices are warming and comforting, and the chicken is so tender and juicy.

I love how easy this recipe is to make. Just throw everything in the slow cooker and let it do its thing. The chicken comes out fall-off-the-bone tender and the sauce is rich and flavorful.

This Moroccan spiced chicken is a flavor explosion in every bite! The spices are perfectly balanced and the chicken comes out so tender and juicy. I served it with couscous and a side of roasted vegetables, and it was a hit with the whole family.
