We've simplified the recipe by using lemon rind and juice to achieve the same subtle lemon flavor. Ours is also slow-simmered to yield a rich broth like the original's, but it's made in a fraction of the time. Since Chicken Tagine is so saucy, it's best served. Add the rest of the oil and the onion to the pan.

Instructions to make Chicken Tagine with Lemon and Olives:
  1. This is based on using an actual tagine pot. It will assume you can use it on direct gas but if not you can easily do the following steps in a heavy bottomed pan first instead (which is what I've done)
  2. PREP: * Thinly slice your onions length ways. *Crush your garlic and mix with 1/2 tsp of salt. *Add a little warm water to your saffron in small vessel. *Chop your coriander roughly.
  3. Heat you pan on a low heat and add the Olive oil. Add the chicken thighs to the pan skin side down and seal for a few mins. Turn over and seal other side. You are not cooking the chicken here so this is a 10 min step max… You'd like a nice bit of browning if you can
  4. Remove the chicken to side
  5. Now add the onion to pan and add the mashed garlic and salt too. Mix over medium heat.
  6. Sprinkle the ginger, pour the saffron water and add the cinnamon, followed by the lemon juice and the preserved lemon. Add the parsley and coriander and mix it all up. Smells awesome!
  7. If you have a tagine you can now transfer the mix to the tagine. If not carry on with your pan.
  8. Now layer your chicken thighs onto your mix and add your olives
  9. Now pour over 175ml of water in to the dish (or pan if you have no tagine)
  10. Now, put tagine into oven at 180 or if you can leave on hob on low heat for 45 mins or until the chicken is cooked through and has clear liquids (no red). If you are using a pan at this time, you will need a lid for it that seals well. You can always wrap some foil around the seal to help. Leave the pan on low heat.
  11. If you have spare herbs add them along with any salt to taste. Add couscous or breads to enjoy a tasty meal

Stir for a few mins, then add the garlic and Moroccan spice mix. Stir, scraping any bits of onions and chicken from the bottom, until the spices smell fragrant. Bring to the boil, then place the chicken on top. Add chicken broth, stock, or water. Cover, but leave a crack for steam to escape.
