IRAQI CURRIED CHICKEN
I got this recipe from an Iraqi family after the Persian Gulf War when me and my family were camping in northern Michigan. They had left Iraq after the invasion of Kuwait, and I was lucky to be strolling thru the park when I smelt this meal cooking in their cabin. They warmly shared their meal and gave us the recipe. The slow-simmering smells wonderful and the flavor is fantastic. This is not a spicy curry as curries go, so even my kids will eat it. I suppose when our troops start coming home, they just might inundate us with the flavors and recipes they've experienced over there and will want to have them again, just like our ancestors have after coming home from successfully liberating the oppressed countries of the past century. Hope you try this and think of our troops.

Steps:
- Heat a Dutch oven over medium heat and add the oil.
- Add the chicken pieces and cook gently until browned on all sides.
- Add the remaining ingredients and bring to a boil.
- Reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, for 3 hours, stirring occasionally.
- Yes, this is a long simmer for a chicken, but these are the instructions I was given, and when I tried it at home it tasted just like our meal at the camp. The potatoes should just about disintegrate, which thickens the stock, now turned sauce.
- Note that the fat and bones from the chicken will disengage from the meat - not very palatable for our tastes, but the Iraqi family seemed to have just ate around them. (I remove them and the cinnamon sticks before serving.).
- Serve over rice. We like to add cooked or steamed vegetables over the rice before drowning it with the curry. Box of frozen broccoli works for us. Oh - they also served whole pita breads with this, which they tore and passed on to one another to tear and pass and use as scoops. Neat!

Mix in the honey and salt. Allow the sauce to heat up until gently simmering.
- Add the chicken to the sauce, tossing to coat, and allow it to simmer until warmed through, about 3 minutes. Turn off the heat. Mix in the chopped cilantro, hot sauce and lime juice.
- Ladle the soup into bowls. Garnish with mango cubes, cilantro leaves and lime wedges.
IRAQI SHABBAT CHICKEN
My husband's family come from Iraq and when I was first married, my mother-in-law taught me how to make this delicious dish. It takes a long time to cook but it is not labour intensive - believe me the taste is worth the long wait for dinner!

Steps:
- Chop onions and place in a large oven casserole dish adding tomato puree and about 1 litre of water.
- Place chicken on top of onions and put into a pre-heated oven at about 150C for about 3 1/2 hours.
- When cooked, remove chicken and place to one side.
- Take half the juices with the puree and onions and put into a saucepan. Add the okra, salt, pepper and lemon juice and bring to the boil, simmer gently for 30 minutes. If tinned okra is used, drain well before use.
- Wash Basmati rice throughly and add to the rest of the juices in the casserole dish, add some more water to just cover and place back into the oven to cook for a further 1 hour.
- When the rice is cooked, portion up the chicken and add to the top of the rice and cook for a further 1/2 hour.
- The rice is now a wonderful reddy/golden colour with the taste of the chicken infused.
- Serve altogether with the Okra sauce.

IRAQI STYLE TABYEET CHICKEN
This recipe is a variation on an overnight Jewish Sabbath dish that appears throughout the Middle East. This is an Iraqi Jewish version. Made this for a Tag Game and talk about moist and succulent. The rice turns into this flavorful pilaf. The best part is you can make it and forget it.

Steps:
- Heat the oil in a dutch oven over medium-high heat. Stir in the turmeric and brown the chicken on all sides. Add the water, tomato paste, spices, salt, pepper (I use a lot of pepper and not very much salt) and bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat to medium and cook for about 10 to 15 minutes. Remove the chicken.
- Return the cooking liquid to a boil and add the rice. Cover, reduce heat to low, and simmer for 15 minutes. If the rice is dry, add a little more water. Take the rice off the stove and cool for a few minutes, uncovered.
- Mix the garbanzo beans into the rice mixture and then spoon a cup or so of rice into the cavity of the chicken. Make a well in the rice within the pot and nestle the chicken, breast side up, into the rice.
- Take the eggs and carefully prick a hole in the round part of the eggshell (to let air escape) and then bury them carefully in the rice around the chicken. Make sure they are not touching the bottom of the pot. Explosions are not good.
- Cover with aluminum foil and then cover tightly with the dutch ovens lid and bake in a 200F oven overnight (10 hours). You can also bake the casserole at 350F for 2 hours, reducing the heat to 250F and cooking for 2-3 more hours.
- When ready to serve, remove the chicken carefully and de-bone it. Arrange on a serving platter with the rice mounded around it. Scrape up all the crusty rice from the bottom of the pan - its the best part. Arrange the eggs, peeled and halved, on top of the rice.

IRAQI TAGHRIB (TASHREEB )
This is an Iraqi recipe eaten by the poor people in Iraq since it is so simple, but the taste is kingly. It is a kind of soup/stew served over cut up pieces of large flatbread. You eat it with your hands and serve it with spring onion; you take a bite of the food and then a little bite of the spring onion (if you like). I am just trying to describe the way the Iraqi's eat it. The food doesn't look like it was served in a restaurant but believe me the taste is lovely!!!!! If you don't like the idea of bread, you can serve it with basmati rice.

Steps:
- Fry the chicken pieces in some oil, or deep fry, and set aside.
- Fry the onion and garlic; add the liquid of the chickpeas; and put in all the spices.
- Add the chicken stock, chopped tomatoes and 2 liters water. Wait until it boils and than add the tomato puree.
- Add the potatoes, chickpeas, and chicken; let it boil until the potatoes are done.
- Serve over cut up bread or basmati rice. When you serve it over rice, make sure you use less water or more tomato puree, to make the sauce thicker.
- P.S. You can replace the chicken for lamb or chicken breasts, and you can add some veggies such as carrot, sweet pepper, green beans, etc., or you can even add some sweet potato or pumpkin.
- The Iraqi people put in whatever they have leftover; be creative and add what you like.

IRAQI CURRY POWDER
Many Iraqi recipes call for curry powder and this is the way I make it. An example of a recipe I use this in often is recipe#420598. It is best to buy whole spices and grind them yourself. You can see this recipe made here in this cute video on Youtube, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WmS_xOd2CBo. Modified from a recipe found on www.recipesbyrachel.com. I think I cut down the cayenne pepper powder even more as we do not like heat. Feel free to do that also. It is still flavourful.
