Moroccan Chicken Stew
Bring vibrant North African flavour straight to your counter with this Moroccan Chicken Stew, a colourful, aromatic dish designed for butchers who want to offer customers something warm, wholesome, and packed with character. This recipe uses a full suite of premium Verstegen ingredients to create a stew that stands out both visually and in taste, giving your customers a ready-to-cook option that feels comforting yet adventurous.
The base starts with tender diced chicken thigh, chosen for its rich flavour and ability to stay succulent during cooking. By combining Verstegen Binding DS with Verstegen Spicemix Del Mondo Medina, the chicken gains both structure and deep, aromatic spice. This pairing gives the stew its signature warmth, while also helping the finished dish maintain an appealing, consistent texture that cooks beautifully at home.
Next, fresh vegetables bring colour and crunch before they mellow into the sauce—strips of carrot, diced red onion, and mixed peppers create a vibrant, inviting display at the counter. To elevate the flavour profile even more, the stew is enriched with Verstegen Lemon Coriander Sauce, which adds a bright citrus edge and subtle herb notes. This sauce forms the heart of the dish, tying the fresh vegetables and spiced chicken together into a harmonious base.
To finish the mix, a drizzle of Verstegen World Grill Ginger Lemon Chilli—an oil-based coating—adds extra shine, depth, and a gentle kick of heat. It enhances the aroma instantly, making the product even more attractive to shoppers browsing your display.
Finally, garnish with lemon slices and zest for a fresh, eye-catching lift that signals bold flavour from the first glance.
This Moroccan Chicken Stew delivers big flavour, reliable consistency, and strong visual appeal—perfect for modern butcher counters looking to boost their ready-to-cook offering.
