This is a standy of mine. It's super easy, can work for a fancy meal, or as a good old supper. I do cut back on the oil a bit. I love the way the potatoes get very lemony. And the sweetness of the sugar and spices are a nice change.

Wonderful flavor, cooked this for friends and they all loved it and wanted the recipe. Unlike the other review, my sauce didn't come out oily, as a matter of fact next time I will tweak the recipe to get a little more sauce

This recipe deserves a 5-star for flavor — it was ALL there, and DH declared the chicken "Splendiferous!" even though I substituted orange for the lemon juice, and left off the cheese. My one disappointment with the dish was that the sauce didn't stick to the chicken or potatoes — it was so oily it was much more of a "dipping sauce" (perhaps this is what makes it Egyptian!!). BUT by mashing the potatoes into most of the dish's sauce I took full advantage of the flavorful juices. With this adjustment, it was a 5-star meal that I will definitely make again.
