No — Chicken Tagine is not ultra-processed.
A wholesome prepared meal made mainly with recognizable cooking ingredients.
Chicken tagine is a ready-to-eat prepared meal, but its components are recognizable culinary ingredients: chicken, vegetables, rice, bulgur, legumes, extra-virgin olive oil, spices, herbs, honey, wine, stock, lemon, milk, and cornflour. None of the listed ingredients is an industrial formulation or additive that meets the specified UPF criteria. The vegetable oil is identified as sunflower/rapeseed oil, which is a basic culinary oil, and the stock is made from water and chicken bones. Therefore, this product is not classified as ultra-processed.

Ultra-processed foods (UPFs) are industrial formulations made with ingredients and additives you wouldn't find in a home kitchen — such as emulsifiers, artificial flavourings, colourings and modified starches. The classification is based on the NOVA system used by researchers and dietitians worldwide.
