MOROCCAN CHICKEN: MADE ON STOVE TOP, CROCK-POT OR TAGINE
Shopping at Ikea I bought a Tangine because it looked so cool! Don't worry, if you don't have one - you can just make this on the stove top. If you want it to be ready when you come home from work, just toss it into a crockpot (slow cooker) P.S. you can also make this with Lamb or Pork if you want to!

Steps:
- Super Easy:.
- Olive Oil in pan on high heat.
- Add chopped onions and sautee a little.
- Add chicken.
- Mix a bit.
- Reduce heat and add all the spices and mix a little.
- Count to 60 so let the spices warm up a little.
- After 1 minute has passed, add chicken stock, prunes and rasins and stir a bit.
- Cover and simmer for about 15 minutes.
- Uncover, stir a bit again and simmer another 5 minutes until the stock has reduced a bit and it's not so runny.
- If you are using couscous, put the cous cous on a serving plate first then pour this chicken dish over the couscous which will absorb any loose liquid.
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------.
- If using a crockpot (slowcooker).
- Dump everything in the same order as above: oil, onions, chicken, then spices, fruit, cover with stock and slow cook for anywhere from 4 hours (ideal) to no more than 10. The longer it cooks, the better it will be - but it WILL dry out after 10 hours unless you a little extra chicken stock.
- Side Dish ideas:.
- Polenta.
