This was my first time making tagine and it was a success! The chicken was tender and flavorful, and the quinces were perfectly cooked. The spices were well-balanced and gave the dish a wonderful aroma. I will definitely be making this again.

I love this recipe! It's so easy to make and always turns out great. The chicken is always tender and juicy, and the quinces are the perfect balance of sweet and tart. I usually serve it with couscous, but it's also great with rice or potatoes.

This tagine was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still a good dish. The chicken was tender and the quinces were cooked well. I think next time I'll use less sugar or honey.
