DIFFICULTY: Nice & Simple
45 mins Cooking Time
1. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large, heavy-bottomed pot or traditional tagine over medium heat. 2. Season the chicken thighs with salt and pepper, then brown them on all sides for about 5-6 minutes. Remove the chicken and set aside. 3. In the same pot, add the chopped onion and cook for about 5 minutes until softened. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another 1 minute until fragrant. 4. Stir in the ground cumin, ground ginger, ground cinnamon, ground coriander, paprika, and saffron threads (if using). Cook the spices for about 1 minute to release their aromas. 5. Pour in the chicken stock, chopped tomatoes, and honey. Stir well to combine.

6. Add the preserved lemon (or fresh lemon zest), dried apricots, and cinnamon stick. 7. Return the browned chicken thighs to the pot, nestling them into the sauce, add green olive if using. Lower the heat, cover the pot (or tagine), and let it simmer gently for 35-40 minutes, until the chicken is tender and the sauce has thickened slightly. Stir occasionally. 8. Taste and adjust the seasoning with more salt, pepper, or honey, if needed. 9. Garnish with freshly chopped coriander or parsley, and a handful of toasted almonds for extra texture. 10. Serve the chicken tagine hot with couscous, flatbread, or rice to soak up the delicious sauce. |
