Crispy Sumac Chicken

This dish is from my cookbook Dr Rupy COOKS. In my household, we see this as a bit of a luxury dish. I’m mostly plant-based, but sometimes you just ...crave the delicious flavour of roasted chicken with the amalgamation of molasses, earthy warming spices and tangy sumac. The vegetables cook down into a stew, with the flavours from the marinade adding all the elements you need to make this wonderful dish. Read more This dish is from my cookbook Dr Rupy COOKS.

Delicious marinade. I only had skinless, chicken breasts which I split to make them thinner. The marinade gave them a great flavor and kept them moist. I pan fried chicken, but roasted veggies as per recipe. Definitely make this again!

Delicious! The first thing my wife said after one mouthful was…. We must have this again! And I concur it was really flavourful and tasty.

Absolutely delicious! I turned down to 180 (fan) when chickpeas added and only did 10 minutes more (rather than 20) as it was all looking v caramelised already. Yum!
