This tajine was a disaster. The chicken was dry and overcooked, and the sauce was watery and flavorless.

I found this tajine to be a bit bland. I think it could have used more spices.

I love the combination of flavors in this dish. The sweetness of the apricots and the tartness of the lemons really balance each other out.

This Moroccan crock-pot tajine was an absolute delight! The flavors were rich and complex, and the chicken was fall-off-the-bone tender. I served it over couscous, and it was the perfect comfort food for a cold night.
