| 1. Place a tagine (or large heavy-bottomed casserole) at least 10 inches in diameter over high heat, and add the oil. | 2. Season the chicken generously with salt and pepper. | 3. When the oil is hot, place the chicken pieces skin-side-down in the pot. | 4. When the oil starts to sizzle, reduce the heat to medium. | 5. Sprinkle 1/2 teaspoon each of the coriander, cumin, turmeric, and curry powder (if using) over the chicken. | 6. Cook until the chicken is golden brown, about 15 minutes (Check regularly to make sure that the chicken is not sticking to the pan). | 7. Spread the onion, garlic, ginger, and tomatoes on a cutting board, and season generously with the salt and pepper. | 8. Add them to the tagine, covering the chicken. | 9. Sprinkle with the remaining coriander, cumin, turmeric, and curry powder. | 10. Add the lemon rind and chicken stock, cover, and cook for 15 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender. | 11. Add the plums and cook for a further 15 minutes or until chicken is tender (It may take a little longer if you’re using a tagine). | 12. To serve, place about 1/2 cup of couscous on each plate, top with a few pieces of chicken, and spoon some cooking liquid and vegetables over each plate. | 13. Garnish with almond slivers. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
