Difficulty: 2/3

Our spin on traditional North African tagine comes together in minutes—not hours. Ground turkey and chickpeas are seasoned with our Tunisian spice blend that features caraway, smoked paprika, and turmeric, then simmer with zucchini and garlic. It’s all served over fluffy rice. Drizzle tangy lemon crema over top to tame the heat and brighten the entire dish!

Preparation
1
PREP

  • Wash and dry produce.

  • Zest and quarter lemon. Trim and quarter zucchini lengthwise; cut crosswise into ½-inch-thick quarter-moons. Halve, peel, and thinly slice onion. Peel and mince or grate garlic.

2
MAKE RICE

  • In a small pot, combine rice, ¾ cup water (1½ cups for 4 servings), and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce to a low simmer.

  • Cook until rice is tender, 15-18 minutes. Keep covered off heat until ready to serve.

  • Heat a drizzle of oil in a small pot over medium-high heat. Add cauliflower rice (no need to drain), a big pinch of salt, and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tender and any excess liquid has absorbed, 6-8 minutes. (Save basmati rice for another use.)

3
MAKE CREMA

  • Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine sour cream, a squeeze of lemon juice (big squeeze for 4 servings), a pinch of salt, and as much lemon zest as you like.

  • Add water 1 tsp at a time until mixture reaches a drizzling consistency. Taste and season with salt and pepper if desired.

4
COOK ZUCCHINI

  • Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add zucchini; cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned, 2-3 minutes.

  • Transfer to a plate; wipe out pan.

5
SIMMER TAGINE

  • Heat a drizzle of oil in pan used for zucchini over medium-high heat. Add turkey*, onion, and Tunisian Spice Blend; season with salt and pepper. Cook, breaking up meat into pieces, until browned and cooked through, 4-6 minutes.

  • Add garlic and zucchini; cook, stirring, until fragrant, 30-60 seconds.

  • Stir in chickpeas and their liquid and stock concentrates; cook until liquid has reduced by half, 2-3 minutes more.

  • Remove from heat and stir in a squeeze of lemon juice (big squeeze for 4 servings). Taste and season with salt and pepper if desired.

6
FINISH & SERVE

  • Fluff rice with a fork.

  • Divide rice between plates. Top with tagine and drizzle with lemon crema. Serve with remaining lemon wedges on the side.
