PRESSURE-COOKER CHICKPEA TAGINE

Pressure-Cooker Chickpea Tagine image

While traveling through Morocco, my wife and I fell in love with the complex flavors of the many tagines we tried, so we came up with this no-fuss dish. It's great alongside grilled fish, or add shredded cooked chicken in the last 10 minutes for a change-of-pace entree. -Raymond Wyatt, West St. Paul, Minnesota
