  1. Cut the chicken into small serving pieces, detaching the wings and legs and dividing the breast in 4 pieces and each thigh in half crosswise. Sprinkle on both sides with salt and pepper. Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a shallow casserole and lightly brown the chicken on all sides. Add the onion and cook until it has wilted. Sprinkle in the cilantro, parsley, ginger, saffron, cumin, and nutmeg. Stir in the chicken broth and wine, cover, and simmer 40 minutes.

  2. In a very small skillet, heat the remaining teaspoon oil and lightly brown the almonds over a medium flame. Add the honey and 2 tablespoons water and cook away most of the liquid. Spoon over the chicken, cover, and cook 5 minutes more.

  3. This recipe yields 4 servings.
