CHICKEN TAGINE WITH OLIVES AND PRESERVED LEMONS



Chicken Tagine With Olives and Preserved Lemons image

This rich and fragrant chicken stew is laden with complex flavors and spices reminiscent of the sort you might encounter in a mountainside cafe in Morocco. Save yourself the cost of a plane ticket, however, and make this at home. First, rub the chicken with a redolent combination of garlic, saffron, ground ginger, paprika, cumin, turmeric and black pepper, then pop it into the refrigerator for 3 to 4 hours to marinate. Once that's done, brown the chicken parts, and remove from the pan, making room for a pile of sliced onions that you'll sauté until golden brown. Nestle a cinnamon stick into the tangle of onions, pile the chicken parts on top and scatter with slices of preserved lemons and olives, a combination of green and kalamata. Add a bit of chicken stock and lemon juice, then cook over low heat until the chicken is cooked through, and your house smells amazing.

5 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1/4 teaspoon saffron threads, pulverized
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon sweet paprika
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon turmeric
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 chicken, cut in 8 to 10 pieces
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
3 medium onions, sliced thin
1 cinnamon stick
8 calamata olives, pitted and halved

1 large or 3 small preserved lemons (sold in specialty food shops)
1 cup chicken stock
Juice of 1/2 lemon
1 tablespoon chopped flat-leaf parsley

Steps:

MOROCCAN CHICKEN WITH PRESERVED LEMONS



Moroccan Chicken with Preserved Lemons image

Provided by Food Network

Yield 4 Servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 small whole chickens, about 21/2 lbs each, giblets reserved
1 lemon, quartered
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/3 cup chopped cilantro
1/3 cup minced parsley
2 Tbsp minced garlic
1 Tbsp powdered ginger
1/4 tsp saffron threads
1 preserved lemon, cut into small pieces
cup olive oil
2 large onions, thinly sliced
1 Tbsp paprika
2 Tbsp butter
1 cup black or violet olives
Preserved lemon peel, for garnish

Steps:

  • Remove excess fat from chicken, rinse well inside and out and pat dry. Rub chickens with lemon inside and out and under skin of breasts. Rub with sea salt and set aside to marinate in a nonreactive baking dish, covered and refrigerated, overnight. Next day, rinse chickens again and pat dry.
  • In a flameproof casserole large enough to hold both chickens combine cilantro, parsley, garlic, ginger, saffron, preserved lemon and pepper to taste. Add 1/4 cup water and chickens, turning to coat thoroughly, and rubbing some of the mixture inside. Add reserved giblets, except livers. Pour oil over and bring to a simmer over low heat. When chicken begins to sizzle, add onions, cover and cook for 30 minutes. Add livers and paprika and continue to cook, covered, 1 hour more.
  • Remove chickens to a carving board and let rest, covered loosely with foil, while you finish the sauce. Cut giblets into small pieces and return to sauce. Using a fork, crush livers into sauce to thicken. Sauce should be thick -- if it is thin, boil until reduced and thickened. Add butter and olives. Heat, swirling pan, until sauce is emulsified. To serve, cut chickens into quarters and arrange on a warmed platter. Spoon sauce over and garnish with lemon peel.
