Ingredients
- 2 large onions, chopped
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons fresh grated ginger
- 3 pounds boneless chicken breasts and/or thighs
- 1 cup clarified butter (or regular butter)
- 2 cups water
- 1 cup red wine (Ethiopian if available)
- 3 tablespoons tomato paste
- 2/3 cup berbere spice blend (see homemade version below)
- 1 tablespoon dried thyme
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 1 lime, juiced
Instructions
- Set a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onions, garlic, and ginger. Pan-fry for 3-5 minutes to soften. (In classic "wat" recipes, the onions are cooked without fat, so they break down and thicken the stew base. The butter is added later.)
- Set out a large 6-8 quart slow cooker. Scoop the onion mixture into the crock. Place all the remaining ingredients, excluding the lime juice, in a slow cooker and cover. Cook on LOW for 6-8 hours or on HIGH for 3-4 hours.
- Once the chicken is fork-tender, pull the pieces out of the slow cooker with tongs and place on a cutting board. Use forks to shred the chicken to bite-sized pieces. Place back into the wine sauce. Then stir in the lime juice and keep warm until ready to serve.
Notes
- Homemade Easy Berbere Spice Blend:
- 1/3 cup hot smoked paprika
- 2 1/2 tablespoons garam masala
- 1 tablespoon crushed red pepper
- 2 teaspoons ground fenugreek seeds
- 2 teaspoons ground cardamom
