How to Make Spicy Chickpea Tagine
- Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a tagine or large pot over medium heat. Add 1 medium onion, chopped, and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
- Add 1 teaspoon ground cumin, 1/2 teaspoon ground coriander, 1/4 teaspoon turmeric, 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (or more, to taste), and a pinch of saffron (optional). Cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly, until fragrant.
- Stir in 1 (14.5 ounce) can of chickpeas, drained and rinsed; 1 (14.5 ounce) can of diced tomatoes, undrained; 1 cup vegetable broth; and 1/2 cup chopped cilantro. Bring to a simmer.
- Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 25-30 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened slightly and the flavors have melded.
- Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Stir in a squeeze of lemon juice before serving for extra brightness.
- Serve hot, garnished with extra cilantro, and accompanied by crusty bread (recipe #260654 recommended).
