Ingredients

  • 1 Tbs. canola oil
  • 4 whole chicken legs
  • Kosher salt, to taste
  • 1 jar (21 oz.) Mourad’s spiced tomato and herb braising sauce
  • 1 can (14 oz.) chickpeas, drained
  • Steamed couscous for serving

Instructions

  • In a Dutch oven over medium-high heat, warm the oil. Season the chicken legs with salt. Working in batches, brown the chicken on both sides, about 10 minutes per batch. Transfer to a plate.
  • Add the braising sauce to the pot and bring to a simmer. Return the chicken to the pot, reduce the heat to low, cover and cook until the chicken is fork-tender, about 2 hours. During the last 15 minutes of cooking, add the chickpeas. Skim the excess fat off the sauce. Serve the chicken and sauce with steamed couscous. Serves 6 to 8.
