Chicken Tagine With Potatoes and Peas (Morocco -- North Africa) Recipe

Directions:

1. In a large flameproof casserole, combine chicken, onions, garlic, oil, saffron, cumin, ginger pepper, paprika & salt, then cover with water, about 2 cups. Over medium-high heat, bring to a boil & cook, covered, for 30 minutes.
2. Add parsley, cilantro & potatoes, then cook, covered, another 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until potatoes are nearly done.
3. Add peas, lower the heat & simmer for 5 minutes more.
