Succulent Moroccan chicken tagine with flavorful spices, garlic, onions, and sweet dried fruit, creating a delightful family meal.
Ingredients:
  • 0.25 cup ground cinnamon
  • 0.25 cup ground cumin
  • 2 tablespoons ground turmeric
  • 2 tablespoons ground coriander
  • 2 tablespoons ground ginger
  • 2 tablespoons crushed dried mint
  • 1 tablespoon salt
  • 2 teaspoons ground black pepper
  • 0.5 cup chopped dried apricots
  • 0.25 cup raisins
  • 4 bone-in chicken thighs
  • 0.25 cup olive oil, or as needed
  • 0.5 small onion, minced
  • 2 teaspoons chopped garlic
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 0.25 cup honey
  • 0.5 bunch fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 0.25 cup toasted sliced almonds
Instructions:
  • Combine cinnamon, cumin, turmeric, coriander, ginger, mint, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Measure out 1/2 cup of the spice mix and save the rest for later use.
  • In a small pot, bring water to a boil. Cook apricots and raisins until soft, around 5 minutes. Drain, saving 1/2 cup of the cooking water.
  • Coat chicken in 1/2 cup of the reserved spice mix by tossing in a bowl until well covered.
  • Drizzle olive oil in a large skillet or Dutch oven to cover the bottom and heat over medium. Sear chicken until golden and easily releases, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Stir in onion and garlic, cook until aromatic, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Stir in apricots, raisins, and reserved 1/2 cup of cooking water, then add chicken broth and honey. Cover, simmer on low heat, and cook until the chicken is very tender, for about 1 ½ to 2 hours.
  • Garnish the chicken with fresh cilantro and almonds before serving.
