Description

Bozartma is more of a cooking method than a dish. It refers to a rich, thick broth with pieces of meat or poultry—such as chicken, turkey, or goose. The main thing is to use a fattier bird.

Ingredients

Onion - 17.6 oz
Poultry - 1 piece
Cilantro - 1 bunch
Parsley - 1 bunch
Dill - to taste
Fresh Mint - to taste
Saffron - to taste
Ocean salt - to taste
Ground Black Pepper - to taste

Step by Step guide

Step 1

Cut the chicken into pieces and place it in a pot. Add a little water (about half a cup) and simmer the chicken under a lid until almost cooked. Drain the juice that has formed during cooking into a separate container.

Step 2

Finely chop the onion and sauté it in the chicken juice until it turns pink.

Step 3

Add the onion with the juice to the pot with the chicken and simmer for another ten minutes. Pour boiling water (about 2 liters) into the pot and let it boil for ten minutes.

Step 4

Add finely chopped herbs and spices, season with salt and pepper, cook for another five to seven minutes, and remove from heat. This is a modest delicacy that is considered no less festive than, say, chakhokhbili.
