Chicken Fatteh by Wafa Shami

Chicken Fatteh is a delicious recipe that consists of layers of bread soaked in chicken broth flavored with garlic and lemon juice, then topped off with rice, tender chicken, and sprinkled with crunchy toasted almonds and pine nuts.

It is a satisfying meal often served as a main dish, accompanied by plain yogurt, cucumber yoghurt salad or basic salad.

Chicken fatteh, or fattet dajaj in Arabic, is one of my family’s favorite weekend meals, where we all used to gather around the table and each scoop from the large rounded platter.

My mother used to make this dish on a Sunday when my dad was off from work so we can sit and eat this meal together. This dish is served in a large rounded serving plate/tray and once prepped it has to be served.

My memories of this dish were that my late father loved to sit on the veranda (a glass sun room) on a cold winter sunny day, and we all sit around a small table bundled up in our small veranda warmed by the sun coming through the glass windows, enjoying this delicious meal. This dish brings so many fun memories.

  • I’m impressed, I must say. Rarely do I come across a blog that’s both equally educative and
    interesting, and without a doubt, you have hit the nail on the
    head. The problem is an issue that too few folks are speaking intelligently about.
    Now i’m very happy I found this in my hunt for something concerning this.
