The traditional version of this classic Moroccan stew is made with homemade preserved lemons and involves a long cooking time. We've simplified the recipe by using lemon rind and juice to achieve the same subtle lemon flavor. Ours is also slow-simmered to yield a rich broth like the original's, but it's made in a fraction of the time. Since this dish is so saucy, it's best served over couscous.
These are not the stuffed peppers of your childhood-they're better. Poblano chiles are rich and flavorful with a mild to medium heat. Using leftover cooked chicken and rice speeds up the already quick prep.
Just after my copy of Vegan Express, the new cookbook that features my photographs, arrived, I was paging through it looking for something quick, low-fat, and
Old-Fashioned Strawberry-Rhubarb Crisp has a generous crumbly oat topping to complement the tangy filling. The recipe is best served warm with ice cream.
