3 chicken recipes/rubs.to choose from:



Tahini Recipe


Ingredients (serves 2)

1/2 cup black or green lentil

1/2 cup freekeh

2 Chicken breasts or thighs

Tahini, Lemon Water (per recipe).

Sumac


Steps

Prepare the chicken and tahini separately.

In a large sauce pan or stock pot, boil the freekeh and lentils in salted water (or chicken broth) together. Medium heat

Add sufficient liquid (at least 4 cups) to account for absorption.

The lentils should start to become fork tender at about 20 minutes. The freekeh will be cooked at around 15 minutes.

The stopping point is right when the lentils begin to disintegrate.

At that point, strain the lentils and freekeh and set aside.

Add the chicken, tahini and top with sumac.
