Directions
Chicken Tagine With Green Olives & Preserved Lemon, Based on a recipe from The Best of Clay Pot Cooking by Dana Jacobi. Dana says, If you can, make this dish as Moroccan women have for centuries, in the cone-topped clay cooker that gives it its name otherwise a Dutch oven works well., I wish there were more than 5 stars to give! This was wonderful – chicken was moist and tender, the seasonings were perfect. used “regular” olives the pimento stuffed kind b/c that’s all I could find locally. Made in a Dutch Oven, served with couscous hmm, seems like a theme. Made for ZWT9 Soup-a-Stars
