How To Prepare
Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet. Brown chicken breasts on both sides and transfer to a plate. Add spices and chopped onion to skillet, and cook until onion has softened. Return chicken to skillet; Simmer for 20 minutes, until chicken is cooked.
How To Prepare
1. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add turmeric, cumin, and paprika; cook, stirring, until the spices begin to foam.
2. Add cilantro, parsley, garlic, and tomatoes; cook, stirring until they’re well blended. Add fennel, potatoes, turnips, and broth. Then reduce heat to medium. Cover tightly and cook until the potatoes are tender (about 30 minutes).
3. Season the mixture with pepper, and lemon juice.
4. Transfer the mixture to a tagine pot or platter. Garnish with cilantro sprigs.
Tagine tips:
1. Our recipes call for a skillet, but you can also cook using a tagine dish. If you use a heavy cast-iron enamel tagine such as All-Clad’s or Le Creuset’s, cut the liquid in the recipe by half; the dish’s tight seal doesn’t allow as much evaporation as a regular pan’s.
2. A tagine dish holds a limited amount of food, so use a small Dutch oven to make big amounts.
3. For a dramatic table presentation in keeping with Moroccan custom, set the dish in the center of the table, slowly lifting the lid to release the heady aromas and show off the colorful meal inside.
