I've had a tagine for around 3 years and finally got round to using it recently as a way to support my better half in her low carb diet. This recipe was so tasty I made it again 2 days later.

Preparation

  1. dice the onion and celery
  2. Peel and slightly crush the garlic
  3. Grate or finely chop the ginger
  4. Cut the lemons into 8 pieces (half them in each of the 3 dimensions)
  5. Cut the chicken into approx 3cm cubes and season with a little salt and pepper
  6. Put the other half of the oil in the tagine and gently fry the onions
  7. Put half the olive oil into a pan and brown the chicken, around 5 mins
  8. Add all of the other ingredients except the mint and water, stir together, and cook for around 5 minutes
  9. Add the mint and water and stir in
  10. Add the browned chicken to the tagine, turn the heat down to low, put the lid on the tagine and cook for around 45 minutes to 2 hours

Notes

  • If possible use olives in oil not brine. If the olives have been in brine then rinse them well to avoid the tagine ending up too salty.
