Al-Baghdadi's Madira can be done with chicken and is pretty good.
Zirbaya from the Andalusian cookbook is a bit odd to modern
tastes--sweet--but good. Andalusian Chicken, from the other
Andalusian cookbook, is tasty. Barmakiyya, which I'm very fond of,
can be made with chicken.
For non-Islamic, Mirause of Catalonia, from Platina, is yummy. We did
it as one of our contributions to a potluck at a recent event and,
alas, there was none left for us to take home. Another Crust of Tame
Creatures, also from Platina, is interesting--a chicken and fruit pie.
All of those are in the Miscellany, webbed on my site.
