Ingredients
1 T olive oil
1 medium onion, thinly sliced
2 cloves garlic, crushed
4 chicken quarters (or 2 lbs. breast meat)
1 t ground tumeric
1 T chopped fresh coriander
1 1/2 C chicken stock
4 quarters preserved lemons
salt
 
freshly ground black pepper
fresh coriander to garnish
NOTE: a crock pot may be substituted for a tagine.

Instructions
Heat the oil in the Tagine base, fry the onion and garlic gently for 3-4 mins. without coloring.
Cut the chicken quarters into two pieces (or the breasts into cubes). Add these to the Tagine, raise the heat slightly and brown evenly, turning the pieces frequently.
Add the turmeric, coriander and stock with some seasoning, bring to a simmer.
Rinse the pieces of lemon thoroughly in cold running water. Cut away and discard the fruit flesh, then cut the softened peel into thin strips, stir these into the chicken. Cover and cook very slowly for 2-2 1/2 hours. Remove the lid and boil the liquid rapidly for a few minutes to thicken the consistency. Garnish with the fresh coriander before serving.
Serving Suggestions
Serve over couscous! In our house, it's all about the couscous! :-))
