Easy chicken and apricot tagine | Sainsbury's Recipes image

An all-in-one chicken tagine recipe, which works as a purée for baby or served with yogurt and almonds for adults.

Provided by Sainsbury's

Total Time 65 minutes

Prep Time 15 minutes

Cook Time 50 minutes

Yield 2 adults and appropriate baby portion (see guide below)

Number Of Ingredients 14

rapeseed oil, plus extra for the couscous
640g chicken thigh fillets, skinless and boneless, chopped into chunks
onion, chopped
garlic, crushed
ground ginger
ground cumin
1 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
Large pinch saffron threads
75g ready-to-eat dried apricots, cut into quarters
4 tomatoes, roughly chopped
Handful coriander, finely chopped
200g couscous
2 tbsp Sainsbury’s Greek yogurt
flaked almonds, toasted

Steps:

  • In a large saucepan, heat the rapeseed oil. Add the chicken and brown all over, turning occasionally. Remove from the pan and set aside. 

    Add the onions and garlic to the pan. Cook on a low heat for 10 minutes until softened and golden, adding a little water if it starts to stick. Add the spices and continue to cook for a further minute. 

    Return the chicken to the pan and add the apricots, tomatoes and half the coriander. Pour in 400ml water, cover and cook on a low heat for 30 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through. Add a splash more water if the tagine seems dry. Cook the couscous according to packet instructions. Fluff up the couscous with a fork, then stir through 1 tbsp rapeseed oil per serving to separate the grains.

    Blitz the tagine with a hand blender to the desired consistency for baby or toddler. Scatter over the remaining coriander to serve and for the adults' dishes, sprinkle over the almonds and a spoonful of yogurt.
