It is a versatile dish for weeknights and pairs well with Persian Rice, roasted vegetables like carrots, bell peppers, zucchini, and potatoes, or a garden salad.
Yield: Serves 3
- 8 skinless chicken drumsticks
- 1 large onion, sliced
- 3 tablespoons cooking oil
- 4 garlic cloves, chopped
- 2 teaspoons turmeric powder
- 3 teaspoons chili powder
- 5 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 3 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- crushed red pepper, as much as you like
Heat the oil in a pot over medium heat. Add the onion and sauté until golden. Add the garlic and sauté for 1 minute or until fragrant. Increase heat to medium-high; add chicken and cook until no longer pink.
Then reduce heat to medium. Add the turmeric powder and stir gently. Add 3/4 cup water and cook covered until completely cooked, about 40-45 minutes.
Meanwhile in a small bowl mix together the soy sauce, balsamic vinegar, crushed red pepper, chili powder and sugar.
Once chicken cooked, add the sauce mixture into the chicken and cook until thickened, about 10 minutes.
