A comforting and aromatic Moroccan-style chicken tagine, featuring tender chicken thighs simmered in a flavorful sauce with warm spices, dried fruit, and roasted vegetables.

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken thighs
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp turmeric
  • 1 14.5 oz can diced tomatoes

  • 1/2 cup dried apricots, chopped
  • 1 15 oz can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
  • 2 cups cauliflower florets, roasted
  • 1 cup couscous, cooked
