Chicken Tagine

By Tasty10 min4 servings

Prepare to be transported to the vibrant streets of Morocco. The succulent chicken, simmered in a fragrant blend of spices and aromatic herbs, creates a dish that's bursting with exotic flavors. Serve it over a bed of fluffy couscous and get ready to take your taste buds on a tantalizing journey to the land of spice and everything nice!

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 190ºC (375ºF).

  2. 2

    Place all of the ingredients for the spice rub in a small bowl and mix to combine.

  3. 3

    Place chicken thighs in a large bowl and coat with the spice rub.

  4. 4

    Heat a very large cast iron skillet and drizzle in 2 tablespoons of olive oil. 5. Place seasoned chicken thighs skin-side down and cook until the skin is brown and crispy, about 4–5 minutes. Then flip the thighs over and brown the other side for 4 minutes. Remove chicken from the pan.

  5. 5

    In a large bowl, add baby potatoes, cherry tomatoes, shallots, and apricots. Drizzle with the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil and season to taste with salt and pepper. Mix until evenly coated.

  6. 6

    Place the vegetables into the bottom of the tagine and arrange the chicken, skin-side up, around the top, wedging a slice of lemon between each piece of chicken.

  7. 7

    Place the lid on the tagine and place in the oven for 1 hour and 40 minutes, or until chicken is 165ºF (75ºC) and falls off the bone.

  8. 8

    Garnish with fresh parsley and toasted almond slivers.

  9. 9

    ENJOY!
