Turkey Tagine With Apricots


Serves: 4
Total Calories: 986

Ingredients

4 turkey thighs, about 2 pounds total, skin removed
salt and ground black pepper to taste
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 medium onions, peeled and quartered
1 tablespoon finely chopped garlic, preferably fresh
1/3 cup lemon juice (2 lemons)
1 can chopped green chili
1 stick cinnamon
1 (14-ounce) can chicken broth
1 cup dried apricot half (about 4 ounces)
1 cup couscous, preferably whole wheat

Directions:

Season the turkey thighs with salt and pepper. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat, and brown the turkey on both sides. Add the onion, cover, and cook until it loses its raw look, a few minutes. Add the garlic, lemon juice, chiles, cinnamon stick, broth, and apricots and heat to boiling. Reduce the heat to medium-low so that the liquid simmers gently. Cover and simmer until the turkey is tender, about 50 minutes.

Remove the turkey to a platter. Remove the cinnamon stick, heat the liquid in the pan to boiling, and stir in the couscous. If using whole wheat couscous, simmer for 5 minutes. If using regular couscous, remove from the heat, cover, and set aside for 5 minutes. Serve the turkey on a bed of couscous.
