A little later today, we are giving you a tutorial for preserved lemons. So, to whet your appetite for that, here is a recipe that uses preserved lemons to full effect: A flavorful Moroccan tagine with chicken, garlic, ginger, olives, saffron and other spices — as well as the tangy, delicious flavor of lemons preserved in salt.

This recipe is like a party-fied version of our own Lemon Garlic Chicken. It is a simple recipe, with some exotic ingredients to give it a huge burst of flavor. Saffron, olives, garlic, and preserved lemons — how can you go wrong?

And on a tangential note, we are really enjoying the recipes that come out of Gourmet’s Adventures with Ruth — many of them are international recipes that we’ve always wanted to try, and they’re written up and illustrated in just such a way to help us get going with them in our own kitchen.
