About Chicken tagine

Chicken Tagine is a flavorful Moroccan stew, slow-cooked in a cone-shaped clay dish called a tagine. Its rich, aromatic taste comes from a blend of spices such as cumin, turmeric, cinnamon, and paprika, paired with tender chicken, onions, garlic, and olive oil. Typically, this dish includes preserved lemons, green olives, and sometimes dried fruits like apricots for a balance of savory and sweet flavors. Traditionally served with couscous, it is a well-rounded meal rich in protein and fiber. The use of spices provides antioxidants and anti-inflammatory benefits, while olive oil offers heart-healthy fats. However, sodium from preserved lemons or olives may be a concern for some diets. Lower-fat cuts of chicken make this dish lighter, while the slow-cooking method locks in nutrients and enhances flavor without the need for excessive fats or salts. Chicken Tagine is a soulful dish that’s as nutritious as it is delicious.
