    He's moving so fast, I'm having a hard time getting some of the ingredients, but I love this dish, and will be making it!

    You can buy a tagine at any Middle Eastern homeware store or Amazon or Ebay if u have any of these accounts. You know I am helping you and you are eager to cook a tagine. That's exactly what Maeve O'Meara said, "You can't cook Moroccan food without one of these. The tagine!" Lucky I solved your problem. 🙂

    When u cook with preserved lemon, do not use the flesh! Just the skin. That is where the flavor is!!! just and FYI…

    it would be better with non-hybrid chicken!

    probably with some rice or couscous. or perhaps a salad 🙂

    the chicken has been marinating overnight, so the lemon and onion have already begun cooking it to a large extent, besides it is in fairly small pieces, also the tajine pot is a steam cooker. i'd say yes 45 minutes is just about enough, although you'll hear many food experts tell you not to marinate a chicken in anything acidy for over 2 hours…

    Is 45 minutes on the stove really all it takes for this dish? Seems pretty short..

    Please. don't apply his method, it will not turn out good. In order to make a good meal you need exact messurment. I am an excellent cook, and i tried his method for this recipe, and it turned out to be too limoney, bland and not a good meal. I wasted my meal and my organic chicken!

    With what do we serve the Chicken Tajine?

  12. Lucia Lazarte

    I am going to make the recipe for Sunday..I did not know it needed to be marinated over night. I also made the preserved lemon, it is ready to be use. This will be my first Chicken Tajine. I would like to know where can i find the special Moroccan Clay pot used in here
    Thank you

    Perfect description. And timely. I want to make this for the first time to take to a gathering tomorrow and luckily I found out I needed to thaw the chicken and do the chermoula today. I can't do wheat so I'm going to make quinoa to have with it instead of cous-cous. I can't wait to try this out.

    @karyma83

    You mean the skin of the lemon isn't bitter either?
