INSTRUCTIONS
Copeland Marks Another Hameen, or slow-cooked chicken and rice dish
for the Sabbath, this is a contemporary recipe. It can be prepared at
any time as long as it is baked slowly and thoroughly. There are great
advantages in today's busy world in having a one-dish meal that can be
prepared and put in the oven 5 hours before dinner time. Heat the oil
in a pan large enough to hold all the ingredients. Add the onion and
stir-fry over low heat until golden, about 3 minutes. Add the chicken
and brown lightly on all sides for 5 minutes. Add the tomato and fry
for 2 minutes. Place the rice all around the chicken, and add the
chick-peas, salt, pepper, paprika and water. Cover the pan tightly,
bring to a boil, and simmer on top of the stove for 5 minutes. Then
bake in a 200-degree F. oven for 5 hours ..... the longer, the better.
The chicken will become quite tender, the rice will be cooked but
still moist. Serve warm. Posted to JEWISH-FOOD digest V97 #009 From:
