What it is
A festive and spicy chicken stew, featuring chicken drumsticks/thighs and hard-boiled eggs, simmered in a complex sauce of extremely slow-cooked caramelized onions, berbere, garlic, ginger, and niter kibbeh (clarified butter).
Key ingredients
Chicken (drumsticks/thighs), hard-boiled eggs, niter kibbeh, onions, garlic, ginger, berbere spice, tomato paste, salt.
If you order it anyway
Request 'no injera'. Ask for 'no potatoes or carrots' if these are sometimes added by the restaurant. Confirm no added sugar in the berbere sauce or stew base.
Watch out for
Onions (extremely significant amount reduced to a paste for the sauce base), tomato paste (contains natural sugars), berbere spice blend (trace carbs, potential for hidden sugars), restaurant additions like potatoes/carrots.
