Easy Moroccan Tagine Chicken Recipe!

Easy Moroccan Tagine Chicken Recipe!
Serves 8
This afternoon I wanted to share with you all another one of my favorite crockpot recipes, my Crock Pot Moroccan Chicken Tagine! This recipe is simple to make, and if I am planning to make this recipe, I will shop around for the best deal on the apricots, ginger, and chickpeas! I generally am able to find the rice and other spices at my local Dollar Tree, and use chicken from Zaycon. I can make this dish for under $9.00, and it feeds eight! This exotic Moroccan dish will satisfy palettes of all shapes and sizes!
