Turkey thighs are easy to find, but you also can use a cut-up chicken, if you prefer. This dish is great served with couscous.
How to Make It
Step 1
Combine the first 9 ingredients in an electric slow cooker, stirring to combine. Stir in 1/2 teaspoon salt.
Step 2
Rinse turkey with cold water; pat dry. Sprinkle with remaining 1 teaspoon salt and cumin. Place in slow cooker. Cover with lid, and cook on LOW 6 hours. Discard cinnamon stick.

My young daughter (ten years old now) craves this recipe and I have made it many times with no stumbles. It is easy and delicious. Guests love it. I make it on the stove top on a low setting though (it cooks in a few hours), since I don't have a crock pot.

I've made this several times, always to rave reviews. The sauce is spectacular over couscous, rice or sopped up with crusty french bread.

This is one of the worst things I have ever made. My family hated this. It was way too rich with way too much going on.

Wasn't sure about the unusual mixture of flavors but this turned out fabulous. Substituted boneless skinless chicken thighs, which were fork-tender and very moist. Otherwise made it exactly as written. Excellent over couscous as suggested. Will definitely make again.
