Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Sear the Chicken

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Season chicken thighs with salt and pepper. Add the chicken to the skillet and sear for about 5-7 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove the chicken and set aside.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In the same skillet, add the chopped onions and garlic. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until the onions are translucent. Add the sliced carrots and continue to cook for another 3 minutes.

  3. 3

    Add Aromatics and Chickpeas

    Stir in the cinnamon, cumin, turmeric, and chickpeas. Cook for 2 minutes until the spices are fragrant.

  4. 4

    Combine and Simmer

    Return the chicken to the skillet, add the chopped dried apricots and chicken broth. Bring to a simmer, cover, and cook for 25-30 minutes until the chicken is cooked through.

  5. 5

    Finish and Serve

    Stir in the lemon juice and chopped cilantro before serving. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper to taste. Serve hot with couscous or bread.
