Known for being packed full of flavour - tagines originate from the North African-Mediterranean countries - and are perhaps most well-known as Moroccan.  Tagines (called after the conical dishes they are cooked in) are slow-cooked stews, typically made with sliced meat, poultry or fish together with vegetables or fruit.  

This version uses lean chicken, together with apricots, dates, preserved lemons, black olives, and spices: coriander, cumin paprika, ginger, turmeric, cayenne pepper and cinnamon.  The spices give tremendous depth of flavour, with a background warmth (without being "spicy")

The couscous is also given extra flavour by being cooked in vegetable stock, with carrot and parsley.

Ingredients:

Couscous (57%): couscous, carrot, vegetable stock, parsley
