- Morocco
- Toddler friendly
Ingredients
- A whole chicken, boiled (good way to use leftover chicken from making chicken soup)

- Bell pepper
- Ginger
- Cumin
- Saffron
- Cinnamon
- Cilantro
- Toasted almonds
- Parsley
- Phyllo dough
- Melted butter
- Powdered sugar and cinnamon, for finishing
Instructions
- Using pre-boiled chicken, rub the meat between your hands to shred it until stringy. Saute the onion, bell pepper, ginger, cumin, saffron, cinnamon, cilantro, toasted almonds, and parsley in a pan. Add the chicken. Wrap the mixture in phyllo dough, brushing the dough with melted butter. Bake at 375F until golden, then sprinkle with powdered sugar and cinnamon.
Note
