About Freekeh with Chicken
Jasmin Rose Ibrahim’s Lebanese chicken with freekeh combines bone-in, skin-on chicken breasts with roasted wheat grain. Her published one-pot preparation includes a whole-spice sachet and chicken stock.
Allspice, cinnamon, cardamom and black pepper provide warm aromatics, while ghee and onion enrich the freekeh. The grain contributes the earthy flavour described by the source.
The chicken rests among the cooked grain, with roasted sliced almonds and chopped parsley as the named finish. The spice sachet is removed before the portions reach the serving plates.
