Stir in 2 teaspoons of aji seasoning, 0.5 teaspoon of black pepper, and 2 cups of canned diced tomatoes. Return the chicken to the pot.
Add 1 whole preserved lemon (quartered), 100 g of green olives (pitted), and 1 cup of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 25 minutes.
Serve the tagine over cooked basmati rice or with bread.
