Preparazione
- Finely chop the onion, garlic, cilantro, and parsley. Rinse the preserved lemon, discard the pulp, and slice the peel.
- Heat the olive oil in a tagine or heavy pot. Add the onion and garlic and cook gently until soft.
- Stir in the ginger, turmeric, saffron, cinnamon, and salt, then add the chicken and turn to coat.
- Pour in the water, cover, and simmer gently for about 50 minutes until the chicken is tender.
- Add the olives and preserved lemon peel and cook uncovered for 15 minutes so the sauce reduces slightly.
- Stir in most of the herbs, taste, and adjust the salt.
- Serve hot in the tagine, scattered with the remaining herbs, with bread for the sauce.
