Sumac Chicken

Sumac Chicken

While this dish is not a traditional Musakhan, the flavors are heavily inspired by it... I made this Sumac Chicken when I moved to Chicago. Not only did I miss my family, but the food we loved eating together. I missed the Mediteranean restaurants we used to gather at for every celebration.

Moroccan Chicken

Moroccan Chicken

Moroccan chicken is a personal favorite, and it seems to be everyones favorite once they've tried it. The tangy cream based sauce is bursting with layers of flavor. The charred chicken fillets add their own element and the herbs add a flavor so subtle that you can't put your finger on it, but when you forget to add them, you miss them dearly. This is such a nostalgic recipe for me, because it's something I always ate at one of my favorite Lahore restaurants, Cafe Aylanto. Whenever I make this I feel a little closer to home....
