To prepare, simply heat the tagine on the stovetop or in the microwave until thoroughly warmed. For stovetop heating, pour the contents into a saucepan and simmer gently over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until hot. If microwaving, transfer the tagine to a microwave-safe dish, cover loosely, and heat on high for a few minutes, stirring halfway through. It can be served immediately as a complete meal or used as a flavorful filling.
