Chicken Kabsa with Sausages and Beans 🍗🌶️🥘

 

  • Sausages

  • Chicken (cut into pieces)

  • Beans

  • Tomatoes

  • Tomato paste

  • Bell peppers

  • Onions

  • Spices (kabsa mix, cumin, cinnamon, or as desired)

  • Chicken broth

Preparation

Step 1: Cook the Sausages

  • In a large pot, fry the sausages until golden brown. Remove and set aside, leaving the flavorful oil in the pot.

Step 2: Cook the Chicken

  • In the same pot, add chicken pieces and fry them in the sausage oil until lightly browned.

  • Add chopped onions, tomatoes, and tomato paste. Sauté until the onions turn translucent.

  • Stir in spices, chicken broth, and some water.

  • Simmer on low heat for about 45 minutes until the chicken is fully cooked. Remove the chicken and set aside, keeping the broth in the pot.

Step 3: Prepare the Potatoes and Layer

  • In another pan, fry the potato slices for about 15 minutes until lightly golden.

  • Return to the main pot: place the fried potatoes at the bottom, then add layers of bell peppers, rice, chicken, and sausages.

  • Pour the chicken broth over the mixture so that the liquid is about 2 cm above the rice.

  • Cook on low heat for around 25 minutes, until the rice is fluffy and the potatoes are tender.

Step 4: Serve

  • Once cooked, carefully invert or spoon the kabsa into serving dishes.

  • Serve hot with a side of salad or yogurt for a complete meal.
