CHICKEN & VEGETABLE TAGINE



Chicken & Vegetable Tagine image

I noticed that most of the tagines listed on this site are for chicken with lemon & olives or for chicken with prunes or apricots. I am trying to remedy this by posting a little more variety.

Steps:

  • Warm the chicken broth then add the saffron strands, allow to steep while the chicken is marinading.

Tips:
