This recipe is good even without the chicken. I use my pressure cooker to cut down on the cook time. If you are using a regular pot the time should be doubled.
Ingredients:
2 lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts
3 cups water
1 (8 ounce) can tomato sauce
2 tablespoons fresh parsley, finely chopped
1/2 medium onion, chopped
1 small chicken bouillon cubes or 1/2 large chicken bouillon cube
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon ras el hanout spice mix, ras el hanout - moroccan spice mix
1/2 teaspoon ginger
1/2 teaspoon turmeric
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 cup dry lentils
Directions:
1. Place all the ingredients into the pressure cooker or regular pot.
2. Cook for 8 minutes after the pressure cooker begins to hiss. Release the pressure, open the lid & stir. Add more water if needed then cover. Cook for an additional 5 minutes.
3. Note: When using a regular pot the cook time should be around 25 minutes.
4. In Morocco, this tagine is served with thick bread to scoop up the lentils & chicken.
