Chicken Tagine

Excellent dish, first time was a bit of trial and error due to no measurements for spicers and also i was using a tagine. But now its a family favourite, especially with pearl Cous Cous

I have cooked this recipe twice and it has been a hit with my fussy family.

does this recipe work in an actual morrocan tagine?

Second time I have made this recipe ... changed the chermoula spices to suit my tastes but a fantastic meal ....

Hi there..sounds great but not sure of measures of spices...tsps or tbsps?

Just made this now. Had all the ingredients, except the preserved lemon (so skipped it). was delicious :) thanks for the post! -Saffy

love the recipe. a liittle different take on some of the amazing food we had in Morrocoo. i would put the olives in a bit later but thats just me

Delicious, the whole family thoroughly enjoyed it. I used Chicken fillets and added vegetables.

Nice thought though Fred!! I have known a few people that would not blink at doing exactly that.

Although the recipe is simple to an experience cook/ chef, you have to admit that the first instruction does say - " to make chermoula, simply place ALL INGREDIENTS in a food processor..." There should be a separation between the chermoula ingredients and the rest of the recipe to make it clearer for someone who may not have cooked/ made these recipes before.

MZ8 - Normally chicken is not "processed" in a morter and pesel.

the method and ingredients are a little confusing, we are not procesing the chicken in the morter and pesel or the food processed, we marinate the chicken in the results of all the pounding and processing.

I have made this. I used only chicken breast, pumpkin instead of yams and prunes instead of dates. Really yum!

Sounds delicious - but I'd substitute brown rice for couscous...
