This is a very simple dish that uses chicken thighs and stays true to the 30 minute timetable with the sides.

I made this and can confirm the its easy and delicious.

Recommend spooning the sauce over the chicken as you plate everything.

I had some leftover Kisir from Dr Betul’s recipe and added to this plated picture.

If no leftover Kisir, a simple salad can be served with the chicken-potato-broccoli.
