Moroccan Chicken & Apricot Tagine | Healthy, No Guilt Dinner Idea!



Moroccan Chicken & Apricot Tagine | Healthy, No Guilt Dinner Idea!

This Moroccan inspired dish is full of flavour but low on calories – best of all it all comes together in the slow cooker which means minimal effort for maximum results – my very favourite type of recipe!

You can add whatever veggies you like and you can skip the chicken if you are vegetarian.
If you like things spicy you can add ½ chopped chilli to this or amp up the spices. This dish is hearty, healthy and delicious – the perfect pick me up after a long day!

Ingredients (serves 4):

540g chicken breast (3-4 large breasts)
½ onion, diced
75g green beans
150g diced sweet potato (yams)
75g carrots, sliced
75g butternut squash, diced
1 garlic clove, crushed
1 tsp ground coriander
1/2 tsp cumin
40g dried apricots, chopped
2 tsp tomato puree
1 tin chopped tomatoes
800ml chicken stock

Saute the onions in a pan with a splash of olive oil. When they are soft, add the garlic, cumin and coriander and heat through. Add the chicken and brown (around 5 minutes).
Transfer all ingredients into a slow cooker (or large stove top pot) and cook either on high (3-4 hours) or low (5-6 hours).

Serve with rice or potatoes or a chunk of bread for dipping.
