Pairing Moroccan seasoning with turkey is a small play on words. During the 16th century there were two upheavals rending the social fabric of Old Europe. From the west and America came many new and unusual foods... corn, peppers, turkeys... while at the same time the Turkish Empire was moving in from the east, bringing new ideas and foods as well. Amidst this confusion it must have been hard to keep all this new stuff straight. The decidedly American Turkey became known as a "Turkish Chicken", or "Turkey". This marinade does wonderful things to turkey.
