Easy Chicken Tagine image

Simple one-pots are perfect for the busy cook. This chicken tagine is great eaten with cous cous for something a bit more filling. You can make this dish using 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts instead of thighs. Simply cut them in half and reduce the simmering time to 15 mins.
