Ingredients

• lemon juice
• olive oil
• salt
• cinnamon
• ginger
• black pepper
• chicken
• carrot
• onion
• garlic
• red potato
• tomato
• yellow bell pepper
• cranberry
• parsley
• chicken bouillon granules
• white wine

Instructions

1. 1 Mix lemon juice, 2 tablespoons olive oil, salt, cinnamon, ginger, and pepper together in a large glass or ceramic bowl. Add chicken pieces and toss to coat. Cover and let sit in a refrigerator for 2 hours, up to overnight.
2. 2 When ready to start, line a tagine with sliced carrots.
3. 3 Heat another 2 tablespoons olive oil in a heavy skillet over medium heat until hot, but not smoking. Brown 1/2 of the chicken pieces, skin-side down, turning over once, 5 to 7 minutes. You are just browning it, not cooking it through. Take out of the skillet and place on top of the carrots, then brown the remaining pieces of chicken. Once those are browned, but not cooked through, arrange on top of the carrots also. The idea is that the chicken does not touch the bottom of the tagine, only the carrots.
4. 4 Add onion to the same skillet and saute over medium-high heat until soft, about 5 minutes. Reduce heat to medium. Add garlic; saute for 30 seconds. Stir in potatoes and saute, 1 to 2 minutes. Add tomatoes, bell pepper, cranberries, and parsley; stir well and keep sauteing over medium heat until hot and bubbly. Sprinkle the chicken bouillon granules over the mixture while it cooks.
5. 5 Pour the mixture over the chicken and carrots. Place the tagine over low heat, making sure any open flames do not touch the bottom of the pot. Drizzle remaining olive oil over top. Pour wine over top and cover.
6. 6 Cook over low heat until potatoes are soft and chicken is no longer pink in the center, about 1 hour. Turn off the heat and let sit for 10 minutes before serving.

5. 5 Remove chicken from the bag; discard bag and cilantro. Cook chicken on the preheated grill, rotating as necessary to cook evenly, until juices run clear and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reads at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C), about 25 minutes.

Ingredients

• sugar
• water
• lemon juice
• orange flower water
• all-purpose flour
• vegetable oil
• egg
• lemon juice
• salt
• orange flower water
• almond
• sugar
• egg
• baking powder
• vanilla powder
• lemon
• orange flower water
• cornstarch
• pine nut

Instructions

1. 1 Prepare the almonds the day before. Bring 6 cups of water to a boil. Remove from heat, and add the almonds. Let the almonds soak in water for about 5 minutes, then drain and peel. Spread the almonds on baking sheets, and bake at 200 degrees F(95 degrees C) until completely dry and toasted. This takes several hours, and needs to be prepared ahead. Be careful not to burn the nuts, as this will give a bitter taste to the filling.
2. 2 Combine 1 cup sugar and 1 cup water in a saucepan, and bring to a boil. Add 1 teaspoon lemon juice, reduce heat to low, and let it simmer until syrupy, about 30 to 40 minutes. Stir in orange blossom water, and remove from heat. Set sugar syrup aside.
3. 3 Combine flour and salt in a large mixing bowl. Make a hole in the center, and pour oil, egg, 1/2 teaspoon lemon juice, and 1 tablespoon orange blossom water into the center. Mix with fingers until the dough resembles coarse crumbs. Gradually sprinkle with warm water while mixing until the dough becomes soft and pliable. Divide into 4 equal portions. Cover dough with a wet cloth, and set aside.
4. 4 In a food processor, finely grind the almonds. Measure 3 cups of the finely ground almonds into a mixing bowl, and stir together with 1 cup sugar, baking powder, vanilla powder, lemon zest, and 2 tablespoons orange flower water. Mix in three eggs one at a time, stirring constantly; mix until you get a sticky, paste-like mixture.
5. 5 Sprinkle cornstarch on the rolling surface to prevent sticking. Roll each portion of dough very thinly, 1 to 2 millimeters (1/16 inch). Cut the rolled dough into circles of about 10 centimeters (4 inches) in diameter each. Lightly wipe the surface of each circle with cornstarch, and fit into a tart mold, cornstarch side down to prevent sticking. Gently press the dough onto the sides and bottom of the mold, and trim extra dough from around the rim. Fill three quarters of each mold with the almond filling.
6. 6 Bake on the top shelf at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the surface of the tart is golden and the dough is firm. Remove the tarts from the molds as soon as they come out of the oven. Dip each tart in the sugar syrup while still hot. Stick a pine nut into the middle of each tart for decoration. Place on a wire rack to drain.

1. 1 Remove and discard stems and seeds from dried chiles. Slice chiles in half or quarters, if they are large.
2. 2 Heat a cast iron skillet over medium-low heat. Add chiles and heat through to ensure any moisture has evaporated. Transfer chiles to a wired rack to cool.
3. 3 Place cumin, coriander, caraway, and peppercorns into the same skillet over medium-low heat. Stir until seeds are toasted and fragrant but not burning, about 3 minutes. Transfer seeds to a plate and allow to cool.
4. 4 Grind chiles and toasted seeds with a mortar and pestle into a coarse powder. Add smoked paprika, garlic powder, smoked salt, parsley, and oregano. Continue to blend until all spices are completely combined and pulverized. Store in an airtight container for up to one month, or until any of the single ingredients expire, if earlier.

Ingredients

• lemon
• olive oil
• ras el hanout
• salt
• chicken thigh
• sweet potato
• zucchini
• chickpea
• artichoke heart
• pomegranate seed
• parsley
• pistachio

Instructions

1. 1 Combine lemon zest and juice, 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 1/2 teaspoons ras el hanout, and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a resealable plastic bag. Add chicken and coat with marinade, making sure marinade gets under the skin. Seal the bag and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
2. 2 Remove chicken from the refrigerator 20 minutes before baking and let come to room temperature.
3. 3 While the chicken is coming to room temperature, preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a 13x18-inch sheet pan with aluminum foil.
4. 4 Combine sweet potato, zucchini, chickpeas, and artichoke hearts in a bowl with remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 teaspoon ras el hanout, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Stir until evenly combined.
5. 5 Remove chicken from marinade and place onto the prepared sheet pan. Place vegetable mixture around chicken.
6. 6 Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Stir vegetables, then continue to bake until chicken is no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, about 15 more minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
7. 7 Garnish with pomegranate seeds, parsley, and pistachios before serving.
