Shopping at Ikea I bought a Tangine because it looked so cool! Don't worry, if you don't have one - you can just make this on the stove top. If you want it to be ready when you come home from work, just toss it into a crockpot (slow cooker) P.S. you can also make this with Lamb or Pork if you want to! Ingredients:
5 boneless skinless chicken breasts, chopped into bite size pieces |
1 tablespoon ground coriander |
1 tablespoon smoked paprika |
1 tablespoon ground cumin |
1 tablespoon mccormick's montreal steak grill seasoning |
1 teaspoon ground turmeric |
1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
olive oil |
1/2 of an onion (white, yellow or red, your choice) |
1 cup chicken stock, from a box |
1/2 cup raisins (if you want, you can use more) |
1/2 cup prune (if you want you can use more) |
couscous (optional, any flavor you want) |
Directions:
1. Super Easy:.
2. Olive Oil in pan on high heat.
3. Add chopped onions and sautee a little.
4. Add chicken.
5. Mix a bit.
6. Reduce heat and add all the spices and mix a little.
7. Count to 60 so let the spices warm up a little.
8. After 1 minute has passed, add chicken stock, prunes and rasins and stir a bit.
9. Cover and simmer for about 15 minutes.
10. Uncover, stir a bit again and simmer another 5 minutes until the stock has reduced a bit and it's not so runny.
11. If you are using couscous, put the cous cous on a serving plate first then pour this chicken dish over the couscous which will absorb any loose liquid.
12. -.
13. If using a crockpot (slowcooker).
14. Dump everything in the same order as above: oil, onions, chicken, then spices, fruit, cover with stock and slow cook for anywhere from 4 hours to no more than 10. The longer it cooks, the better it will be - but it WILL dry out after 10 hours unless you a little extra chicken stock.
15. Side Dish ideas:.
16. Polenta.
17. couscous.
18. Orzo.

20. or just by its self.
