Simmer for 20 minutes, or until the root vegetables are almost tender. Add stock as necessary to keep the stew from drying out. Just before serving, remove the cinnamon stick and stir in the chicken and chick-peas. Simmer for 2-3 minutes, or until cooked. Correct the seasoning, adding salt, pepper, and lemon juice to taste. Garnish with cilantro or parsley and serve at once. Note: To serve as a traditional couscous, use 10 cups stock. Prepare the couscous and mound it on a platter or plates. Ladle the stew on top and serve with harissa or another hot sauce. High-Flavor, Low-Fat Cooking by Steven Raichlen ISBN 0-1402-4123-X pg 131
