Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

Notes about this recipe

  • Eat Your Books

    Can substitute chicken supremes for chicken legs, and Mograbia couscous or fregola pasta for maftoul couscous.

    very nice, favourful dish with a homey feel to it used chicken breast and mushroom because that's what I had in the fridge. because you add the chicken/mushroom at the end, it can be divided into a carnivore and a vegan dish for a party

    I adapted the recipe for leftover roast chicken and it was delicious! Very flavoursome.

    Sami Tamimi suggests a meatless version with grilled meaty mushrooms instead of chicken - treated the same but popped under a hot grill for 15-20 minutes instead of roasting.
