Chicken Fesenjan
Ingredients
2-1/2 chicken fryers (I use breasts)
2 cups walnuts -- chopped very fine (can be browned first)
4 tbsp. olive oil
3-1/2 cups water
1 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
1/2 tsp. pepper
2 tbsp. lemon juice
1 large onion, finely chopped
2 to 3 tbsp. pomegranate syrup
2 tbsp. tomato sauce
1 tbsp. sugar
Directions:
Wash and prepare chicken for frying.
Sauté the chicken in olive oil until brown on all side.
Sauté the onion until golden. Add tomato sauce and sauté for a few minutes.
Add the walnuts and continue to sauté, taking care not to burn.
Add water, seasonings, lemon juice, and pomegranate syrup. Cover and cook for about 50 minutes. If too sour add more sugar.
Arrange sautéed chicken over sauce and simmer for an additional 20 minutes. Serve over white rice.
