This was a bit too sweet for my taste.

I found that the chicken was a bit dry. I think I should have added more liquid to the pot.

This was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I think that's because I used a bit too much cayenne pepper. Next time I'll use less.

This tagine is perfect for a cold winter day. It's hearty and warming, and the spices are very comforting.

I love how versatile this recipe is. I didn't have any apricots on hand so I used dried cranberries instead and it was still delicious.

This tagine is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I had some roasted chicken from the night before and it worked perfectly in this dish.
