MOROCCAN CHICKEN 
2 tablespoons olive oil
4 chicken thighs, skinned
1/2 onion, chopped
1 can (14 1/2 ounce) stewed tomatoes (no salt added)
1/2 cup dried plum (prune) juice or orange juice
6 pitted dried plums (prunes), diced
1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
1 1/3 cups boiling water
1 cup plain tabbouleh
1/2 cup chopped parsley

Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and brown on one side. Turn and add the onion; continue cooking until the onion and chicken are browned. Drain the excess fat. Stir in the tomatoes, juice, dried plums, allspice, salt and pepper. Cover and cook 5 minutes over medium heat.

Uncover and simmer about 10 minutes, until the sauce thickens and the chicken is done; turning the chicken and stirring the sauce occasionally.

Meanwhile combine the boiling water and tabbouleh in a medium saucepan. Cover and rest for 5 minutes. Add the parsley to tabbouleh and season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve the chicken and sauce on a bed of tabbouleh.
