Doro tibs is a quick-cooking Ethiopian classic. Chicken pieces are coated in a homemade spice blend and red pepper, then air-fried with little to no added oil. The marinade contains no sweetener, and the recipe uses much less oil than traditional pan-frying.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Make the spice blend

5 min

Mix the red pepper flakes, cumin, black pepper, and cinnamon to make a homemade spice blend.

2

Marinate the chicken

15 min

Rub the chicken pieces with the spice blend, crushed garlic, grated ginger, olive oil, and salt. Refrigerate for at least 15 minutes.

3

Cook in the air fryer

15 min

Arrange the marinated chicken in the air fryer basket and cook at 200°C / 390°F for 15 minutes, turning it once halfway through. If you do not have an air fryer, bake it on a parchment-lined tray in an oven preheated to 220°C / 430°F for 25 minutes.

4

Add the vegetables

5 min

Add the red bell pepper and onion to the air fryer basket and cook for 5 more minutes. Serve once the vegetables are tender.

Reminder

Marinate the chicken for at least 15 minutes so the spices have time to flavor it; marinate longer if possible.

Baharat karışımını önceden büyükçe bir kavanozda hazırlayıp saklasam kaç hafta bozulmadan dursun? Airfryer'da 200 derece yerine biraz daha düşük sıcaklıkta pişirsem tavuk daha mı yumuşak kalır?
