Quick Easy Chicken Tagine


Inspired by rachael ray's 30 minute replica of this wonderful traditional dish. I serve it with brown rice, but also wonderful with cous-cous or other grains. grilled plantains also introduce a wonderful sweetness to the mix.

Steps


In a large nonstick skillet , add the olive oil and smashed garlic.
Saut onions for 1-2 minutes and add the chicken.
Sprinkle on the spice mixture.
Cook for 2 minutes on each side.
Add the prunes , raisins , and chicken stock.
Stir to combine , reduce to moderate heat , and cook covered for 8 minutes.
Let simmer until near meal time.
Remove cover and cook 2-3 minutes to help remove some of the moisture.
Add more salt , pepper , or cayenne to taste.
Top with cilantro.
