Lissan Ashfour Orzo And Chicken Casserole

Ok I have a plan on how to simplify this recipe here first of all add 4 liters or 1 gallon of water to a pot and bring to a rapid boil on high heat. Add either 1 tsp of olive or grapeseed oil to the water along with a pinch of pink salt. When the water boils add 1 bag of orzo and stir. Cover and let cook for 15 minutes and then drain. Place in a roasting pan oiled with either olive oil or grapeseed oil. Add 1 tbs of butter ghee and swish it around the bottom and the sides until it is evenly coated. Set oven for 375F or 190C.

Now for the chicken add 1 onion or shallot to cook on high heat until brown and add 4 cloves of garlic and do the same. Add 1 bullion cube or 2 pinches of bullion powder, 3 dashes of maggi or knorr aroma, Baharat Or Bokharat Seasoning gets made in mortar and pestle, add 1 bay leaf, 5 mini sweet peppers of any color or 1 large bell pepper, 1 tomato and turn heat down and cook until tomato turns mushy then add the raw 1 lb of raw chicken. Cover and let cook for 30 minutes still on low heat while stiring occationally until the chicken is soft enough to fall off the bone. Remove the bones from the cooked bird and add 1 to 2 pieces of Preserved Lemons. Add the chicken mixture to the orzo in the roasting pan and add 4 pinches of any type of grated Italian cheese.

I like to make my preserved lemons in advance if I am out of them and also I use romano and parmasean cheeses together for the most poart. You can also add medium, sharp and regular provolone cheese, fontina, asiago or even mozzerella. Place in the oven to bake for 20 minutes or until the cheese is bubbly and it is slightly brown. Remove and let sit 10 minutes on the stove before eating. Great to enjoy with a cup of strong black coffee.
