The easiest one-pan dinner inspired by the famous Moroccan Chicken Tagine with olives and preserved lemons! I grew up eating a variation of this every single week and nothing beats my mom's roasted chicken. This is my take on it and it's packed with so much flavor from the potatoes to the chicken to the marinade! https://moribyan.com/one-pan-moroccan-chicken-bake/
