Best 4 Chicken With Yogurt Laban Makoud Recipes

YOGURT CHICKEN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Place yogurt in a small bowl and stir until creamy smooth. Add lemon and stir together. (Note: If you do not stir the yogurt first, the lemon juice will make the yogurt curdle.) In a separate shallow dish or bowl combine the bread crumbs, garlic powder and salt to taste; mix together.
• In a 9x13 inch baking dish place 1 scant pat of butter or margarine for each chicken breast. Rinse chicken breasts and pat dry. Dip each breast in the lemon/yogurt mixture, then in the bread crumb mixture (coating completely but not heavily).
• Place coated chicken in the baking dish and top each breast with a full pat of butter or margarine. Sprinkle with chopped parsley and bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour. Let cool for 5 to 10 minutes before serving.

CHICKEN WITH YOGURT (LABAN MAKOUD)

Steps:

• In a 4- to 5-quart saucepan, combine chicken pieces, cardamom, 1 teaspoon white pepper and 1 teaspoon salt. Add just enough cold water to cover. Place over high heat to bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer, partly covered, until chicken is opaque throughout, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Using a fork, transfer chicken to a platter. Remove 2 cups broth and pour into a clean saucepan. Add yogurt and cornstarch, and place over low heat. Bring to a simmer, stirring frequently, then add chicken and allow to thoroughly reheat for a few more minutes. Adjust salt and pepper as needed, and stir to coat chicken with sauce. Serve garnished with toasted pine nuts or almonds.
