Chicken Tabaka (Tapaka)

Состав / Ингредиенты:

• Chicken 2 Pieces
• Salt - To taste
• Vegetable oil 2-3 Tablespoons
• Ground black pepper - To taste
• Water 1 Cup
• Coriander seeds 2-3 Tablespoons
• Cumin (powder) 1 Teaspoon

	1. Rinse the chickens and thoroughly pat them dry with paper towels.
	2. Using a sharp knife, cut the chicken along the breast, “unfold” it, and place it cut-side down on the surface. Gently pound the meat with a mallet.
	3. Grind the coriander seeds in a mortar, then mix them with black pepper and cumin.
	4. Season the chicken with salt on all sides and generously rub it with the spice mixture of cumin, pepper, and coriander.
	5. Pour oil into a frying pan and heat it over medium heat.
	6. Place the chicken in the frying pan, skin side up.
	7. Put a flat plate on top of the chicken and place something heavy on it, such as a mortar. Fry the chicken for 15-17 minutes, turning it every 3-4 minutes. Don’t forget about the weight. Our goal is to flatten the chicken and brown it.
	8. After 15-17 minutes, add a little water to the pan, reduce the heat to medium, cover with a lid, and cook the chicken for another 8 minutes on each side.
	9. The finished Chicken Tabaka should be golden brown and the meat should easily come off the bones. Enjoy your meal!
