26 November, 1942 - RICK'S CAFÉ AMÉRICAIN OPENS ITS DOORS AS 'CASABLANCA' 
PREMIERES: At its premiere, few involved in the production expect 
'Casablanca' to cause much of a stir, despite its star power in 
Humphrey Bogart and Ingrid Bergman. But the film will go into wide 
distribution in January, and as time goes by, its characters, theme 
song, and dialogue will go on to reach iconic status.

      Title: Casablanca Chicken Couscous
 Categories: Poutry, Pasta, Fruits, Dairy, Vegetables
      Yield: 6 servings

      1 tb Olive oil
      1 md Onion; chopped
      1 lb Chicken thighs; in 1" pieces
    8.8 oz Pkg uncooked pearl couscous*
    1/2 ts Salt
    1/4 ts Pepper
    1/4 ts Crushed red pepper flakes
     29 oz (2 cans) chicken broth
    2/3 c  Dried tropical fruit
     15 oz Can garbanzo beans or chick
           - peas; rinsed, drained
    1/2 c  Plain yogurt
      1 sm Carrot; grated
    1/4 c  Minced fresh parsley
      1 md Lemon

  In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high
  heat. Add onion; saute until softened, 3-4 minutes. Add
  chicken, couscous, salt, pepper and pepper flakes; cook
  and stir until chicken begins to brown, 3-5 minutes. Add
  broth and dried fruit; cook, uncovered, until chicken
  and couscous are tender and fruit is moist, 8 to 10
  minutes.

  Stir in remaining ingredients; heat through. Remove from
  heat. Let stand, covered, 10 minutes. Meanwhile, zest
  lemon peel into strips; cut lemon into six wedges. Top
  couscous with zest strips and serve with lemon wedges.

  * Pearl couscous is much larger than regular couscous
  and takes longer to cook, so don't be tempted to
  substitute one for the other.

  Pearl couscous may be labeled Israeli couscous or ptitim
  in Middle Eastern markets.

  Makes: 6 servings
