    | 1. Cut preserved lemon in half, remove pith and pips and rind. Reserve peel for later in recipe and chop flesh. Put chopped lemon flesh in a tagine ( can use a Dutch oven or creuset) - be sure to set the tagine atop a diffuser! | 2. Add in olive oil, finely chopped garlic, parsley and coriander and spices. | 3. Then coat the chicken in the marinade and add in finely chopped onion. | 4. On medium heat, sear the tagine for about 15 minutes. You need to be close to the tagine, otherwise the chicken will stick. You can add a little water and keep searing if it sticks. | 5. After 15 minutes, add about 2 cups of chicken stock and simmer for 45 minutes. | 6. When the chicken becomes nicely browned and the sauce is thick, add in lemon peel and 20 olives and cook for another 5 minutes. | 7. Serve with couscous, salad and bread (so you can mop up all the delicious sauce). | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
