2. In a tagine/dutch oven/skillet/or large pan with a lid, add the 3 T. oil and heat over medium heat. When hot, add the chicken and brown on the top and the bottom. When the chicken is brown, add the onion and mix in. Season with a bit of salt and pepper and cook until the onion begins to soften, about 3-4 minutes.
