Bul Go Gi to Biryani, A World of Taste
That's right the International Group of Fort Knox World of Taste Cookbook is hot off the presses. This little labor of love has recipes from Turkey, Pakistan, Korea, the United Kingdom, Australia, Belgium, Bahrain, Germany,Ecuador, Finland, Canada, France, Brazil and of course the good old USA. Best of all it also has pictures of our club members from the past few years, and every gathering involved sharing at least a small smackeral of something to gnosh on. We do so love to gnosh!
I'm going to share one recipe with you that was made for me by a very special friend from Saudi, though the recipe was written by a friend from the USA.
Djaj Mhammar (Baked Chicken)
1/4 cup olive oil
1/4 cup lemon juice
1 tsp salt
1 tsp oregano
1/4 tsp pepper
1/4 tsp cinnamon
1 chicken, fryer, cut into serving size pieces
Rice
Pine nuts
Combine all of the oil, lemon juice and spices in shallow baking pan. Roll cut up chicken in marinade. Bake in hot oven at 425 degrees F basting occasionally. Bake until tender when pierced with a fork (approximately 30 minutes). Remove from oven and baste again. Serve around a bed of plain rice. Sprinkle rice with cinnamon or pine nuts sauteed to a golden brown. Chicken juices may be reserved in a separate bowl to pour over rice. Serves four.
