    Made this yesterday, and it was delicious. Didn't have all the vegetables in the recipe, so used sweet potatoes and onions, and it turned out great. Served with mashed potatoes although couscous would've been more authentic. Tonight the shredded up leftover chicken and vegetables were warmed through with golden raisins and put in tortilla wraps - another yummy dinner. Thanks for the recipe!
