Instructions

Toast the walnuts: Place walnuts in a dry skillet over medium heat. Toast, stirring frequently, until fragrant and lightly browned, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from skillet and set aside.

Sauté aromatics: Heat olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook until softened and translucent, about 6-8 minutes. Add the minced garlic, cumin, coriander, turmeric, and smoked paprika. Cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, about 1 minute.

Simmer the tagine: Stir in the drained chickpeas, diced tomatoes (undrained), and vegetable broth. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for 15 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.

Wilt the spinach: Add the baby spinach to the pot in batches, stirring until each batch wilts before adding more. Continue to cook for another 5 minutes, or until the spinach is fully tender.

Finish and season: Stir in the fresh lemon juice. Taste and season with salt and freshly ground black pepper as needed. The chickpeas should be tender and the sauce slightly thickened.

Plate and serve: Ladle the chickpea and spinach tagine into shallow bowls. Garnish generously with the toasted walnuts and fresh chopped parsley. Serve hot.
