Ingredients

How to make it

  • Whisk all the ingredients for the marinade together in a bowl.
  • Marinate chicken in the refrigerator for at least an hour. The longer the better, though!
  • Heat chicken stock in a sauce pan.
  • Grind saffron to a powder, then add to heated chicken stock.
  • In a separate large frying pan with a tight-fitting lit, preheat to medium-high.
  • Add butter and olive oil.
  • Once butter is melted, brown chicken on both sides.
  • Remove chicken from pan.
  • Rinse pan with a little bit of chicken stock to remove excess marinade.
  • Melt one tablespoon butter.
  • Add onion, and brown over very low heat until edges of onion pieces are turning golden.
  • Add the garlic, minced ginger, salt and pepper and continue cooking until onions are lightly caramelized.
  • Return chicken to pan.
  • Pour chicken stock and saffron mix over the chicken.
  • Simmer on very LOW heat with pan covered for 30-45 minutes.
  • Add parsley and lemon juice.
  • Simmer 15 minutes longer.
