Joojeh Kabab
Ingredients:
(4 servings)
· chicken, 1 kg
· extra-virgin olive oil, 1/2 cup
· 2 large onions, grated
· 4 medium tomatos
· salt
· black pepper
· saffron, 1/2 teaspoon (optional)
Directions:
Prepare marinade: mix olive oil, grated onions, saffron, salt
and black pepper. Wash and cut chicken into small pieces, then
remove the skin. Marinate overnight (or at least for several
hours) in refrigerator. The container should be covered.
Thread chicken on long, thin metal skewers. Thread leg and thigh
pieces, wings and breast pieces separately, as breast requires
slightly less cooking. Also thread whole tomatoes separately on
another skewer. Brush with marinade. Barbeque for about 5-10
minutes on each side, turning frequently. Joojeh Kabab can also
be prepared in the oven. Prepare chicken as before, pre-heat the
grill to a high temperature, and place just under the grill,
again turning frequently. Serve hot with basmati rice or on
middle-eastern bread.
