Amount Ingredient
6 x Boneless chicken leg and thighs, with skin
3 x Boneless whole chicken breasts, with skin
Salt to taste
Freshly-ground black pepper to taste
4 tsp Turmeric
1/4 cup Olive oil
3 bn Cilantro stems trimmed,
and roughly chopped
Instructions:
Instructions: Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

Run your fingers between the skin and meat of each piece of chicken, leaving one side attached, to create a pocket for stuffing. Season all over with salt and pepper.

Combine turmeric, 2 tablespoons olive oil, and cilantro in a small bowl to form a paste. Divide into 9 equal parts and spread evenly between skin and meat.

Heat remaining olive oil in a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Fry chicken, skin-side down first, until golden brown, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to oven and bake 15 minutes.

Serve immediately, over a bed of bulgur wheat or rice, with Fresh Tomato Sauce spooned on top.

This recipe yields 6 servings.
