Chicken Tagine image

Sunny Morocco is famous for many varieties of stew called tagine. Meat or poultry is simmered in a clay cooking vessel with broth, vegetables, olives and spices such as cinnamon, cumin, ginger and turmeric. Our version is cooked in a large skillet, as the traditional clay cooking vessels are hard to find.

1 tablespoon vegetable oil
3- to 3 1/2-lb cut-up whole chicken
1 medium onion, sliced
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground turmeric
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon salt

  • Reduce heat to medium. Sprinkle cilantro, cumin, turmeric, ginger and salt over chicken. Add cinnamon stick; pour broth and tomatoes over chicken. Turn chicken several times to coat evenly.
