Servings: persons

6 chicken drumsticks (thighs are even better, but more fat content)
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon ground allspice
1/2 teaspoon hot paprika
1 teaspoon turmeric
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1 dash cumin seed (toasted and crushed is preferred, but not necessary)
1 yellow onion, chopped
1 tablespoon canola oil
1/2 cup fresh parsley, chopped
2 garlic cloves
2 teaspoons harissa
1 teaspoon crystallized ginger (omitting if unavailable)
1/4 cup green olives, pitted
1 (14 ounce) can artichoke bottoms, drained (NOT marinated!)
kosher salt, for sprinkling
1/4 cup frozen green pea
water, at room temperature

1
In a cast iron or other heavy pot, sautee onion on oil until translucent and tender.
2
Mix together the allspice, sea salt, hot paprika, turmeric, cumins, and garlic powder. Dip chicken in this mixture.
3
When onion is translucent, add chicken and cook for 10minutes until browned on all sides.
4
Add 3/4 cup water and crystallized ginger (if using) and continue braising for 20-25minutes on low-medium, mostly covered with lid (do not place lid on tight! Steam should be able to escape).
5
Add water (till 1/2 way up or so), harissa (add less if prefer less spicy dish), green peas, and garlic cloves. Reduce heat to simmer, and stew for 30-45minutes, until chicken is soft, sauce has reduced by half, and the smell is already driving you insane.
6
Add artichoke bottoms, and sprinkle kosher salt over the top.
7
Continue cooking on low for another 30minutes until chicken is very tender, and can easily fall off the bone (cooking times may differ depending on your cooking vessel). 2 important points: 1)Don't let the artichoke overcook, or it will be mushy and unappealing; 2)Don't let the chicken dehydrate - if you need to add some more water, do so.
8
Enjoy over a bed of couscous!
