Chicken Tagine with Golden Raisins
Cultural Context
Originating from Morocco, Chicken Tagine with Golden Raisins is a beloved dish that showcases the region's rich culinary heritage. Traditionally cooked in a tagine, a clay pot that allows for slow cooking, this dish reflects the Moroccan love for combining sweet and savory flavors. The use of spices and dried fruits is common in Moroccan cuisine, symbolizing hospitality and celebration. Today, tagines have gained popularity worldwide, with variations emerging in many cultures, yet the essence of this dish remains rooted in Moroccan tradition.
golden raisins

chicken
🥗Healthier: turkey
💰Cheaper: chicken thighs
Turkey is leaner and chicken thighs are often less expensive.

almonds
🥗Healthier: walnuts
💰Cheaper: sunflower seeds
Walnuts have similar health benefits, while sunflower seeds are often cheaper.
Prepare the tagine by adding 2 tablespoons of olive oil to the bottom.
Slice 2 medium sweet onions into rings and layer half of them in the tagine.
Section 2 whole chickens into 6 parts, removing any parts without much meat.
Combine spices: 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon turmeric, 1/2 teaspoon ginger, and 1/4 teaspoon saffron.
Layer the chicken pieces on top of the onions in the tagine.
Add 1 tablespoon of salt and freshly ground black pepper to the chicken.
Add the remaining onions on top of the chicken.
Add 1.5 cups of golden raisins on top of the onions.
Prepare saffron water and pour it over the chicken.
Cover the tagine and cook on medium heat for about 1 hour.
For couscous, wash 4 cups of couscous until the water runs clear.
Dissolve 1 teaspoon of salt in 2 cups of boiling water and pour over the couscous in a shallow dish.
Mix the couscous and let it sit for about 10 minutes to absorb the water.
Layer the couscous with 3 tablespoons of butter and cover with wet parchment paper.
Place the couscous in a preheated 400°F oven for 10 minutes.
After 45 minutes, check the tagine and adjust seasoning if necessary, cooking for another 15 minutes if needed.
