Description
Our simplified version of the national dish of Palestine (musakhan), seasoned with lemony ground sumac, stars cooked shredded chicken and readily available tortillas. In Palestine, the dish traditionally celebrates the new olive oil harvest and is made as a flatbread. The flatbread, called taboon, is baked on rocks and topped with sauteed onions and roasted chicken with sumac and olive oil. Serve this quicker version as you would the traditional one, accompanied by pickles and a green salad. Look for sumac in the spice aisle at well-stocked supermarkets. The recipe is a Yummly original created by Rania Renno.
Ingredients
- 3 large onions
- 2/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil (divided)
- 1/4 cup ground sumac (plus more for serving)
- 1 tsp. salt (plus more to taste)
- 5 cups cooked shredded chicken (from a rotisserie chicken)
- 10 flour tortillas (8 inches wide)
- dill pickle spears (for serving; or other pickled vegetables)
Directions
- Preheat oven to 400°F with a rack set in upper third of oven. Slice onions in half vertically, then cut each into long, thin strips.
- Heat 1/2 cup olive oil in a 12-inch cast-iron skillet or other frying pan over medium heat. Add onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until they’re very limp and light golden, about 30 minutes.
- Reduce heat to medium-low. Stir in sumac and salt to combine, then add chicken and stir to incorporate. Cook, stirring often, until chicken is hot and flavors are blended, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat.
