Tonight, I had some CRAZY ideas running through my head for dinner... when scrounging through the cupboards, this can happen. But my brother and I came up with a plan, and that plan came out well. I love fixing and twisting childhood dishes. Don't you?
First, sear your chicken-- legs, thighs, breasts, whatever--in a hot cast iron skillet.
Remove chicken from pan and add:
2 TBS oil
1/2 finely chopped onion
4-5 cubed potatoes
and gently stir.
Then sprinkle with:
4-8 cloves of garlic finely diced
salt
1 tsp zatar (saving a bit)
1 tsp sumac (saving a bit)
Arrange your chicken on top, sprinkle with remaining spices, and bake at 350 for about 40 minutes.
Sprinkle with the juice of one lemon, garnish with cilantro (if desired) and serve with spinach and yogurt, or anything else your little culinary heart desires.

mmm, sounds delicious!
