Chicken Tagine-ish
This is definitely inspired by a tagine flavor profile but I am not sure if I can call it one.
Ingredients
1 kg | Chicken thighs (or any dark parts, bone in) |
2 tsp | Cayenne |
1 tbsp | Coriander powder |
1 tsp | Turmeric |
40 ml | Olive oil |
5 cloves | Garlic (crushed) |
Parsley (chopped fine) | |
Cilantro (chopped fine) | |
2 cm | Ginger (crush) |
2 pcs | Onions (sliced medium) |
2 pcs | Lemon (preserved if you can find it) (zest, also extract pulp and chop fine) |
8 pcs | Calamata olives |
Carrots (or any other root veggies) |
Instructions
Marinade
