Savory Chicken Tagine Dish

Ingredients 0/18

Step 1

Warm some olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, add the chicken pieces and eggplant. Cook everything, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is nicely browned on all sides but still a little pink inside. Take the skillet off the heat.

Step 2

Transfer the chicken and eggplant to the bottom of your slow cooker. Next, layer the sliced onion, carrots, dried cranberries, and apricots on top.

Step 3

In a bowl, whisk together the chicken broth, tomato paste, lemon juice, flour, garlic salt, cumin, ginger, cinnamon, and black pepper until smooth. Pour this flavorful mixture over the chicken and vegetables in the slow cooker.

Step 4

Cook on high for about 5 hours or on low for 8 hours, until the chicken is tender and everything is well combined.

Step 5

While the tagine cooks, bring some water to a boil in a saucepan. Stir in the couscous, then remove the pan from heat. Cover it and let it sit for around 5 minutes, until the liquid is absorbed. Finally, fluff the couscous with a fork before serving.
