  • 1/2 tablespoon turmeric
  • 1/4 teaspoon grated nutmeg
  • 1/8 teaspoon asafetida
  • 1/2 teaspoon timur (Szechwan pepper)
  • 1 cup yogurt
  • 1 teaspoon garlic paste
  • 1 teaspoon ginger paste
  • 1 teaspoon chili paste
  • Salt and Pepper

Filling:

  • 2 lb. ground chicken
  • 1 cup onion, finely chopped
  • 1 cup red bell pepper, finely chopped
  • 1/2 cup green onion, finely chopped
  • 1 tablespoon fresh garlic, minced

Cooking Instructions:

In a small bowl, combine all marinating ingredients into a smooth paste. In a large bowl, place whole chicken and pour the marinating mixture over the bird; smother the marinade all over, inside and out. Marinate for 24 hours in the refrigerator.

In a large bowl, combine all filling ingredients. Cover and refrigerate until used. Bring out the marinated bird, pat dry with a paper towel. Stuff up the bird with the filling.
