Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 large chicken -- cut into pieces
1 tbsp butter
4 tbsp olive oil
4 cloves minced garlic
1 tsp turmeric -- or saffron
salt and pepper to taste
1 sprig fresh coriander leaves
or 2 tsp ground coriander
1/4 lb kalamata olive -- pitted, 125g
1 lemon -- sliced

Brown the chicken in butter and oil in a large, heavy skillet over moderate heat.
Add the garlic cloves, spices, and coriander (chopped fine).
Cook for about 10 minutes, turing the chicken pieces occasionally to distribute sauce evenly.
Stir in enough water to cover, about 1 cup, and simmer over low heat, adding more water if necessary until the chicken is tender.
Add olives and lemon and cook over somewhat lower heat for 8-10 more minutes, or until sauce is reduced. .

I usually use boneless chicken instead of boney chicken pieces. This will reduce the cooking time a bit. Use less water (1/2 -3/4 cup) if you use boneless chicken.

This recipe does not have to be made with chicken at all. Try cauliflower or zucchini in various combinations. Use less water if you don't use chicken pieces.
