Serves 4

  • 3 Tbsp olive oil
  • 2 Tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 Tbsp coriander
  • 1 Tbsp cumin
  • 1 Tbsp cardamom (optional)
  • 3/4 Tbsp garlic powder
  • 2 tsp smoked paprika
  • 2 tsp sea salt
  • 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
  • 2 lb (910 g) pargiyot, cleaned
  • 1 large onion, sliced
  • techinah, for drizzling (optional)
 Pickled Daikon and Beets
  • 1 daikon radish, peeled and cut into matchsticks
  • 1 16-oz (450-g) pkg prepared beets (reserve liquid)
  • 1/2 cup vinegar
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1 Tbsp sugar
  • 1/2 Tbsp sea salt
  • 1/4 tsp peppercorns
Israeli Couscous
  • 3 Tbsp olive oil
  • 1 large onion, diced
  • 1 cup Israeli couscous
  • 6 oz (170 g) sliced mushrooms (optional)
  • 1 1/4 cups beef broth or chicken broth (or 1 1/4 cups water + 2 tsp soup mix)

Combine oil, lemon juice, and spices in a large ziplock bag. Add chicken and onion; toss to coat evenly. Marinate for 3 hours or overnight. (If time doesn’t allow for marinating, omit this step. It will still be delicious.)

Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and grease lightly with baking spray.

Allow chicken to come to room temperature. Spread the chicken and onion in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Roast, uncovered, for 30 minutes.

Remove pan from the oven, cool, and slice the chicken into thin strips.
