- Salt And Pepper, to taste
- Olive Oil
- 2 Small Yellow Onions, Diced
- 1 pound Carrots, Peeled & Halved Lengthwise
- 4 cloves Minced Garlic
- 1 Tablespoon Ground Cumin
- 2 teaspoons Ground Turmeric
- 2 teaspoons Ground Ginger
- 1/2 teaspoons Ground Cinnamon
- 1/4 Tablespoons Cayenne
- 1 Tablespoon Salt
- 1 can (15 Oz. Size) Diced Tomatoes, With Juices
- 6 cups Chicken Stock

- 1 bunch Kale, Stems Removed & Roughly Chopped

- 1. Season the chicken thighs with salt and pepper. In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat a thin layer of olive oil over high heat. Sear the chicken in batches over high heat, making sure not to crowd the pot. Cook until golden-brown, about 4 minutes per side. Remove to a mixing bowl.
- 2. Add the onions into the pot and saute until translucent, making sure to scrape up any remaining drippings from the chicken, about 7 minutes.
- 3. Stir in the carrots, garlic, cumin, turmeric, ginger, cinnamon, cayenne, and salt. Cook until the spices are fully incorporated and aromatic, about 2 minutes.
- 4. Add the tomatoes and cook until thick, 5 minutes. Arrange the chicken on top of the vegetable mixture and cover with the stock.
- 5. Bring to a simmer, turn the heat back down to low and cook, uncovered, for at least 2 hours. The longer the better.
- 6. During the last 15 minutes of cooking, add the chickpeas, kale and lemon juice. Finish cooking then spoon the tagine into individual bowls and garnish with cilantro or parsley.
