📝 Ingredients
For the Filling
1 whole boneless chicken breast
1 medium onion, finely chopped
1 bell pepper, finely chopped
2 chili peppers, finely chopped
1 tbsp tomato paste
Ground pepper, to taste
Black pepper, to taste
Red pepper flakes, to taste
Grated cheese, as needed
For the Dough
4½ cups all-purpose flour
2 tbsp yogurt
100 g butter
Salt, to taste
For the Topping
1 egg yolk
👩🍳 Instructions
Cut the chicken breast into small pieces and place it in a hot pan.
Cook until the chicken is fully cooked and the released liquid has evaporated.
Add the chopped onion and sauté until slightly softened.
Add the bell pepper and chili peppers and continue cooking.
Stir in the tomato paste, ground pepper, black pepper, and red pepper flakes. Sauté for a few more minutes until fragrant.
Remove the chicken mixture from the heat and allow it to cool. Once cooled, mix in the grated cheese.
In a separate bowl, combine the flour, yogurt, butter, and salt. Knead until you have a soft dough that doesn't stick to your hands.
Divide the dough into equal balls and flatten each one slightly.
Place the dough portions on a baking tray, add the chicken filling to the center, and cover completely with dough, sealing the edges well.
Brush the tops with egg yolk.
Bake in a preheated oven at 175°C (347°F) until golden brown and beautifully baked.
Serve warm and enjoy this delicious Ramadan centerpiece! 🌙🤍
