I had my doubts looking at the ingredient list. I thought so few basic ingredients cannot produce something delicious. How wrong I was. This was the best tagine I have ever made and I have tried many many recipes. Incredible. Thank you.
4. Transfer the chicken, onions and garlic to the tagine and add 1/2 cup water around the chicken pieces, as well as add any juices that had accumulated on plate. Place the lid on the tagine or if using a casserole dish, cover this tightly with aluminum foil. Place in oven for 40-45 minutes (depending on how much chicken you used, it could be a little longer).

7. Ten minutes before chicken is done, add apricot mixture to tagine, as well as pitted prunes and olives. Remove cinnamon stick, though you can use as a garnish. Continue cooking until chicken is no longer pink at the thickest part. Serve chicken on a bed of couscous if desired and sprinkled with almonds on top.
I know a lot of people are hesitant about cooking fish, and I do understand why, but this, my friends, is the recipe to allay your anxieties and free you from fear. Your fissues will be a thing of the past.
Cooking now. I added olives, and my fish is flounder, as I couldn't get cod (and the flounder was on sale, woot!). I wish I had checked your blog while I was still at the store. I didn't expect them to have the same brand harissa (I didn't think they'd have harissa at all), and I bought the mild. Should have got the spicy, for sure! But it'll be yummy anyway. (I fell in love with harissa when Trader Joe's used to sell sardines in harissa. We don't have a TJ's near us, so I only got it once! Awesome on the much-made-fun-of avocado toast.) Thank you for the recipe!

Each chapter focuses on a different city or region - Marrakesh, Athens, Venice, Andalucia, Stockholm and the Midi Pyrenees region of France. Classic recipes sit alongside new dishes that Jamie learns along the way. Alongside each recipe there is a beautiful photograph of the finished dish, as well as incredible reportage shots of Jamie's experiences in each country. Jamie says: 'The food I've embraced on each trip is a mixture of what you could call the cliched star dishes - the many tagines of Morocco, the flamboyant paellas of Spain, the comforting risottos from Italy and the zingy fresh flavours of a classic Greek salad - and the recipes that I've been inspired to make after walking through the markets and soaking up the vibes of each place.
A simple vegetable tagine recipe packed with warm Moroccan flavors. One of my new favorite one-pot meals. Vegan and Gluten free! Be sure to watch the video for how to make this vegetable tagine below!
The main spice used in this easy vegetable tagine recipe is a new favorite in our shop: Harissa (pronounced: ha-REE-sah). An all-natural unique blend of three types of chili, along with sumac, caraway, fennel and more! To play up the depth and warmth of harissa spice, I added a little cinnamon, coriander, and a touch of turmeric.
Hi, Apparna. I actually don't own a tagine, so, unfortunately, I can't give you accurate information on how to use one for this particular recipe. I'm sure it's possible, though! If you give it a try, I'd love to hear any feedback!
This simple chicken tagine was absolutely delicious and left me feeling I could eat tagine every day. It's easy to prepare and super healthy too. All the vegetables are a great way to get some of your 5 a day. I also love the soft dried apricots as they turn really plump and juicy as they cook. My husband is not so keen on them so I get even more to eat too!
Altogether this easy slow cooker tagine is a great recipe to throw into your slow cooker in the morning and come home to a delicious evening meal. If you have time then make the marinade the evening before and pop it in the bottom of the slow cooker with the chicken. In the morning just add the vegetables and stock and set the slow cooker off.
As I said earlier, this chicken tagine is a super simple recipe that needs very little preparation. I always mix up the marinade for the chicken the day before and then the next day I just put everything in the slow cooker and switch it on. It takes about 2-3 hours on high or 4-5 hours on low.
If you do have a tagine pan then you can use it instead. You can start by cooking the onions in the tagine on the hob, then add the chicken and any excess marinade. Seal the chicken on all sides and then add all the other ingredients. Put the lid on and transfer the tagine to the oven for an hour at 180C.
Traditionally tagines are made with meat that is on the bone. Often a whole jointed chicken will be used in Morocco. I would advise using skinless chicken thighs which is what I've used here. Because of the cooking method, if the chicken has skin on it will go slimy in the slow cooker so it's best to remove it.
This chicken tagine is easy to adapt. Firstly you can vary the levels of spicing in the marinade. If you are cooking for people who don't like heat then use a little less chilli powder. Or increase it for those who do like hot food. You can also add a chilli pepper or two!
I love recipes that the whole family will eat and luckily my children do like spices and they are also quite good at eating chickpeas. This tagine is spicy but not hot and my kids love it! It's a great family friendly recipe.
Guests will love this fiery paella made with chicken instead of the classic fish, chargrilled red peppers, chunky tomatoes and a splash of lime juice. Keep the dish in the centre of the table for a very laid-back but social affair.
Jamie Oliver is someone who knows how to make an occasion out of dinner. Bursting with flavour, this recipe is the marriage of tender rosemary chicken, a side of fresh peas and creamy, herbed potato gratin. Try displaying this recipe like Jamie, on a wooden board and with plenty of drama and finesse. You won't have to worry about impressing guests.
I do love your recipes and I have your book. Can I ask why you indicate 8 chicken thighs for 6 people. Is one thigh enough in your opinion per person, with a few extras? I thought 2 per person, but maybe that is too much?ThanksNorman
Chicken thighs are the juiciest and richest part of the chicken. This chicken part has more fat than other parts, and the fat is what adds the flavor. Recipes using chicken thighs are usually richer than recipes that call for chicken breasts. There is something on this list for everyone. 2ff7e9595c
