Chicken and Almond Pastilla

The chicken and almond pastilla is one of the most refined dishes of Moroccan cuisine, often called 'bastila' depending on the region. It's a festive dish that combines the crispiness of brick pastry, the tenderness of spiced chicken, the crunch of almonds and a sweet veil of icing sugar and cinnamon. For an authentic pastilla, the key spices are cinnamon, ginger, turmeric and saffron – a blend that gives all its character to the filling.
