Heat oil in a saucepan and fry the chicken and onion for about three minutes till they brown. Add harissa paste and cook for a minute. Stir in the apricots, chickpeas and tomatoes. Fill half the tomato with water and add to the pan. Simmer for 10 minutes until the chicken is cooked through with no pink meat. Season and stir in the herbs.

Serve with the tagine.
