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.
What makes this chili best-ever is a toss-up. The salsa? The cheese? That creamy dollop of sour cream? The fact that it's low-cal and low-fat? Whatever. Best-ever.
