African Chicken and Yam Tagine
For his own unwillingness to submit to the immoral acts and his efforts to safeguard the faith of his friends, Charles was burned to death.
In honor of his feast day, I decided to make a dish from African origins.
I hope you enjoy it.
The definition of a Tagine is a Moroccan cooking vessel. It is genreally made out of clay. This is what was used before they invented the slow cooker. The Tagine has been around for thousands of years. If you dont have a tagine, a dutch oven will do just fine.
African Chicken and Yam Tagine
Preheat oven to 400. Put the chicken,baharat, olive oil, salt, pepper and honey inaTagine or Dutch oven. Coat the chicken with the mixture. Add the potatoes, and onion. Mix to combine.
Place the Tagine lid or Dutch oven lid on and bake for 30 minutes. Cook for an additional 15 minutes with the lid off.
Grind the pepper and allspice and blend with cinnamon and nutmeg. Store in an airtight container until ready to use.
Serve in a decorative Tagine with the rice on the bottom of the bowl. Pour the chicken mixture over the top.
I don’t own a tagine, but I think I can adapt this recipe for my Dutch oven. Great flavors!
