MOROCCAN CHICKEN TAGINE WITH EGGPLANT, PEPPERS, AND CHICKPEAS
Tagines are a slow-simmered staple in Moroccan cuisine. Hearty, comforting, and complex in flavor. This version is anchored with chicken, eggplant, peppers, onion, and chickpeas and studded with dried apricots that rehydrate and plump as they cook, infusing with the fragrant spices in the cooking liquid. The eggplant roasts while you prepare the rest of the stew and gets added in once it's browned. When selecting eggplant, look for small to medium-sized ones that seem heavy for their size; have smooth, shiny skin; and are free of soft spots. Pair this tagine with couscous, rice, or a bed of baby spinach.

Steps:

MOROCCAN CHICKPEA AND EGGPLANT (AUBERGINE) STEW
Found this on another recipe website when I was searching for chickpea recipes. Love this - make it regularly and have passed it on to numerous friends and family. Is gluten-free if served on rice. Only requires 1 fresh ingredient (my basic criteria) and can be sized up and frozen with great success. It seems very similar to Ciao's #66380 which I will have to try soon.

Steps:
- Cut off the ends of the eggplant, than chop into ¾" cubes. I salted an eggplant once just for fun, but with fresh eggplant just don't find it necessary!
- Chop the onion roughly.
- Mince the garlic.
- Coat a large deep-sided frypan with olive oil. and heat over a medium heat.
- Add the minced garlic, onion, chili powder, cumin and cinnamon. Stir well to coat evenly. Cook until the onions have softened (approx. 4-5 minutes).
- Add the eggplant, tomatoes and chickpeas, along with the stock. Simmer over medium-low heat, covered, for fifteen-twenty minutes (until the eggplant is tender).
- Uncover and stir. If the stew looks very soupy, let the liquid bubble away for a few more minutes.
- Salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve over rice / pasta / cous cous / even toast would be yummy.
- The qty of spice listed make it moderately hot - good for a taste explosion for someone not used to spices. I normally double them as I like things really spicy!
AUBERGINE (EGGPLANT) AND CHICKPEA TAGINE
A tagine is a Moroccan casserole dish used to maximize flavour. If you don't have a tagine a normal casserole dish works just fine. Goes well over brown rice.
