Chicken With Grilled Onions & Sumac

 

Hello everyone!

This recipe is easy to prepare and you can prepare the chicken a day in advance if you want too. You can also bake it a couple of hours before your guests arrive. It will still have the flaky crust dough with good texture and you’ll impress your guests with little effort!

 

 

Ingredients:

3 pounds of chicken breasts cooked with spices and shredded.  3 Large onions diced seasoned and grilled.

2 eggs for brushing the top of the dough

3 tea spoons of sumac seasoning

1 package of puff pastry dough (or you can make your own dough) about 12 large pieces

A juice of one lemon

4 table spoons of olive oil

Salt to taste

1 tea spoon paprika if you like it spicy you can use hot paprika

½ tea spoon black pepper.

Pickles or peppers for garnish 

 

Preparation:

Combine chopped onions & ½   of the seasoning over the olive oil

 

 

Caramelize the onions

 

Cook the chicken with seasoned water ( I usually cook chicken for most recipes with a couple of Bay leaves, salt , pepper, dash of hot peppers & ½ onions)

 

Shred all the chicken, add the seasoning

 

Combine chicken with onions

 

Mix & Cook for about 5 minutes

 

 Place chicken on the dough

 

Fold to any shape you prefer

 

Press tight so chicken stays in

 

Brush with eggs

 

I like to be generous with the eggs on top to give it beautiful golden color

 

Pre -heat oven to 375 Fahrenheit.

Bake about 20 minutes, or until golden color. 

Garnish with pickles or peppers. Enjoy!!

 

 

 

 

 

 

You can also use flour tortilla if you don’t wish to use dough or if you don’t have it. Use same exact recipe, place on a tortilla and roll like a small burritos, don’t forget to brush the top with eggs, Bake & enjoy.
