Catch the Spoon

I screwed up moving the blog to a new server yesterday, so Catch the Spoon experienced a bit of downtime. In honor (or perhaps in memoriam) of the slap-dash reassembly of this blog, I present some equally haphazard (but totally tasty) chicken, which just finished bubbling away on my stove. (All quantities are approximate.)

Downtime Chicken

Ingredients:

• 2 lbs chicken drumsticks, bone-in, skin on
• 1/4 cup garlic paste
• 1/4 cup tahini
• 1 tablespoon whole black peppercorns
• 3 tablespoons ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 2 tablespoons dried minced onion
• Splash apple cider vinegar
• Splash lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon chicken base
• Dash celery salt
• 1/2 cup currants
• 2 cups water

Combine all ingredients in a large pot; cover. Simmer gently over low heat for 3-4 hours or until chicken falls off the bone. Enjoy your downtime.
