It's hard to find a dinner that both my husband and kids will enjoy—and even harder to find one that's fast and easy. This is it! No matter how much I make of this dish, it's gone to the last bite.

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup za'atar seasoning
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 3 teaspoons dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric
  • 3 pounds bone-in chicken thighs
  • 1 cup pimiento-stuffed olives
  • 1/2 cup dried apricots
  • 1/2 cup pitted dried plums (prunes)
  • 1/4 cup water
  • hot cooked basmati rice, optional

Directions

  1. In a large bowl, combine first 6 ingredients. Add chicken; toss to coat.
  2. Arrange olives, apricots and plums in bottom of a 4- or 5-quart slow cooker. Add 1/4 cup water; top with chicken. Cook, covered, on low until chicken is tender, 5-6 hours. If desired, serve with rice.
