Ingredients
-
1 tablespoon ground ginger
-
1 teaspoon white pepper
-
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
-
2 sticks cinnamon
-
1 teaspoon saffron thread, crumbled
-
1 teaspoon turmeric
-
1 1/2-2 teaspoons salt
-
1/4 cup butter
-
1/4 cup olive oil
-
1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
-
2 large sweet onions, chopped medium
-
1 whole chicken, cut into pieces and skin removed
Instructions
- Mix all ingredients in a Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot.
- Cover, and cook over medium to medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, for about 1 hour, or until the chicken is very tender and pulls easily off the bone.
- Do not add water, and be careful not to burn the chicken.
- Reduce the liquids until they are mostly oils.
- Discard the cinnamon sticks, and taste for seasoning. (The sauce should be a bit salty and peppery.).
