    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.

    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
