Hazırlanışı

Adım adım

  1. 1

    Pat the chicken thighs dry and season them generously with salt and black pepper.

    Yaklaşık 2 dk.

  2. 2

    Heat the olive oil in a large tagine or Dutch oven over medium-high heat.

    Yaklaşık 1 dk.

  3. 3

    Sear the chicken thighs skin-side down for 5-7 minutes until golden brown and crispy, then flip and sear for another 3-4 minutes. Remove the chicken from the pot and set aside.

    Yaklaşık 10 dk.

    Aşçının notu: Searing adds flavor and helps render the fat.

  4. 4

    Add the chopped onion to the pot and cook for 5-7 minutes until softened and translucent, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot.

    Yaklaşık 7 dk.

  5. 5

    Stir in the minced garlic, grated ginger, ground turmeric, cumin, paprika, cinnamon, and coriander. Cook for 1 minute until fragrant.

    Yaklaşık 1 dk.

    Aşçının notu: Be careful not to burn the spices.

  6. 6

    Pour in the chicken broth and the saffron threads (if using) with their soaking liquid, scraping the bottom of the pot to deglaze.

    Yaklaşık 1 dk.

  7. 7

    Return the chicken thighs to the pot, nestling them into the liquid and spices.

    Yaklaşık 1 dk.

  8. 8

    Bring the liquid to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and cook for 40 minutes, or until the chicken is tender and cooked through.

    Yaklaşık 40 dk.

    Aşçının notu: If using a tagine, ensure the lid is properly sealed to trap steam.

  9. 9

    Stir in the sliced preserved lemon rind and green olives. Continue to cook for another 5-10 minutes, uncovered, to allow the flavors to meld and the sauce to thicken slightly.

    Yaklaşık 10 dk.

  10. 10

    Remove the tagine from the heat and stir in the fresh cilantro and parsley.

    Yaklaşık 1 dk.

  11. 11

    Serve hot, perhaps with couscous or crusty bread.
