Istruzioni

1. 1.Pat the lamb cubes dry and season generously with salt and pepper. Heat 1 tbsp of olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Brown the lamb in batches until golden, then set aside.
2. 2.Reduce heat to medium, add the remaining 1 tbsp of olive oil, and sauté the chopped onion for 5-7 minutes until soft and translucent. Add the minced garlic, cumin, coriander, turmeric, cinnamon, and ginger, cooking for 1 minute more until fragrant.
3. 3.Return the browned lamb to the pot. Stir in the chopped tomatoes, vegetable broth, sliced carrots, and halved apricots. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to low, cover, and let it gently cook for 60 minutes until the lamb is tender.
4. 4.While the tagine simmers, cook the quinoa according to package directions. Once cooked, fluff it with a fork and stir in half of the chopped parsley, half of the cilantro, and the zest of one lemon.
5. 5.For the final 15 minutes of cooking time, add the cubed zucchini and the drained chickpeas to the tagine. Stir to combine and continue to simmer, covered, until the zucchini is tender-crisp.
6. 6.Remove the tagine from the heat. Squeeze in the juice of half a lemon and season to taste with more salt and pepper if needed. Serve the hot tagine over the herbed quinoa, garnished with the remaining fresh parsley and cilantro.
