Ingredients

  • 3 lbs Boneless skinless breasts
  • 10 Garlic cloves pressed or finely minced
  • 2 tablespoon Lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoon Olive Oil
  • 1 tablespoon Ginger puree
  • ¼ cup Butter
  • 1 Large onion chopped
  • 1 cup finely chopped green onions
  • ¼ cup Berbere
  • 1 ½ cup Chicken broth
  • Salt and pepper.
  • 6 Hard boiled eggs

Instructions

  • Trim chicken and place in a plastic zip baggie.
  • Whisk together garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, and ginger, pour over chicken. Seal baggie, allow to marinate in the fridge for 2 hours
  • In a large pan, melt the butter. Cook the onions and green onions over low heat for about 30 minutes, or until sort of a khaki colour.
  • Add the berbere, stir well, and continue to cook for another minute or so, until fragrant.
  • Add the chicken - marinade and all - to the pan. Turn the heat up to medium, and cook until chicken is browned on all sides.
  • Add broth, stirring well to combine. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer for 30 minutes.
  • Once the 30 minutes are up, taste the sauce and add more berbere if you’d like. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
  • Peel the boiled eggs. Use a fork to gently prick each egg, all over the surface - not too deep, though!
  • Add eggs to the pan. Gently stir to cover the eggs in sauce, simmer another 10 minutes.
  • Serve hot, with coconut cauliflower rice.
