    This seemed bound for failure but it was absolutely delicious. I added more water and cooked it covered, then thickened the sauce a bit at the end. I’d make a few adjustments next time: brown the chicken, then add the onions, add a tablespoon flour with the garlic, double or triple the water, and cook the chicken with the lid on. It may not be the way your Persian grandmother cooked it, but it would save watching the pan for burnt onions.
