Chicken Tagine with Seven Vegetables

I have made this recipe many times for my husband who is from Morocco. I had this recipe book and lost it--finding the recipe here was great. This is one of his favorites. I would recommend not making this in a crock pot.

Directions

Saute over low heat until onion is just tender, 5-10 minutes.

Stir, bring to boil, reduce heat, and simmer 10 minutes.

Peel turnip; dice turnip, zucchini, carrot, and bell pepper.

Add dark meat and diced vegetables to Dutch oven.

Simmer, uncovered, 10 minutes.

Dice tomatoes.

Add chicken breasts, tomato, raisins, and parsley, pushing down lightly to be sure ingredients are covered by liquid.
