Chicken Tagine image

Sunny Morocco is famous for many varieties of stew called tagine. Meat or poultry is simmered in a clay cooking vessel with broth, vegetables, olives and spices such as cinnamon, cumin, ginger and turmeric. Our version is cooked in a large skillet, as the traditional clay cooking vessels are hard to find.

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 tablespoon vegetable oil
3- to 3 1/2-lb cut-up whole chicken
1 medium onion, sliced
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground turmeric
1 teaspoon ground ginger

Hot cooked couscous or rice, if desired

Steps:

  • In 4-quart Dutch oven, heat oil over medium-high heat. Place chicken, skin sides down, in hot oil; add onion and garlic. Cook 6 to 10 minutes, turning chicken occasionally, until chicken is brown on all sides.
  • Reduce heat to medium. Sprinkle cilantro, cumin, turmeric, ginger and salt over chicken. Add cinnamon stick; pour broth and tomatoes over chicken. Turn chicken several times to coat evenly.

This chicken tagine was okay. The chicken was cooked well, but the sauce was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would have preferred it with a more savory sauce.

This chicken tagine was a good dish, but not amazing. The chicken was a bit dry and the sauce was a bit bland. I think it could have used more spices. I might try making it again with some modifications.

This chicken tagine was a bit bland for my taste. I added more spices and it turned out much better. The chicken was tender and the sauce was flavorful. I'll definitely make it again, but with more spices next time.
