Once more we were dealt an unseasonably chilly and entirely grey and rainy day last Monday, with no restorative emergence of the sun as had been dangled by the forecast as a late-afternoon possibility. It took extra effort to keep it from souring the Monday mood and I engaged myself instead in a worthy pursuit: trying out a totally new dish. My trips to West Africa had put me on the hunt for just this sort of recipe but I've been slow to get around to it. Alas, at dinnertime, we were amply rewarded by the wonderful jollof rice with spiced chicken thighs. Oh, that flavor, from just the right mix of spices and add-ins for the basmati rice. The chicken was tender and juicy as a bonus but it was not the featured player that evening.
