Best 4 Baharat Chicken Tenders Recipes

BAHARAT ROAST CHICKEN

Steps:

• In a large resealable plastic bag, combine the baharat, sumac, cumin, coriander, preserved lemon rinds, garlic, chicken stock, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Seal the bag and gently massage everything together. Open the bag and toss in the chicken thighs and onions, reseal, and massage again to fully coat the chicken. Toss the bag in the fridge for at least 2 hours but preferably overnight to marinate, turning the bag once or twice.
• Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
• Dump the chicken and the marinade in a large roasting pan and arrange the chicken, skin side up, on top of the onions. Roast until the chicken is golden brown and the juices run clear when pierced with a knife, 40 to 50 minutes.
• Ladle the chicken, sauce, onions, and lemon onto mounds of rice or couscous.

BAHARAT CHICKEN AND RICE

Steps:

• Mix paprika, black pepper, cumin, coriander, loomi, sumac, cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, green cardamom, and black cardamom together to make baharat spice mixture. Set baharat blend aside.
• Combine cilantro, 2 tablespoons olive oil, and lemon juice in a resealable plastic bag. Add 1 tablespoon baharat blend. Add chicken pieces, seal, and shake. Marinate in the refrigerator at least 4 hours.

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Heat 2 teaspoons olive oil in a Dutch oven or tagine over medium heat. Add shallot and cook until translucent, 1 to 3 minutes. Turn off heat. Add rice mixture and toss to coat.
• Remove cilantro from the bag with the chicken. Pour marinated chicken on top of the rice in the Dutch oven; reserve bag. Pour broth into the bag and shake gently; pour over the chicken and rice. Cover Dutch oven.
• Bake in the preheated oven until rice is soft and chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 75 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
