Doro Tibs

A quick sizzling sauté of chicken with onion, jalapeño, rosemary and spiced butter.

  • Serves 4
  • Active 20 min
  • Total 25 min
  • Mains

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 lb boneless chicken thighs, cut in 1-inch pieces
  • 1 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1 red onion, sliced
  • 2 tbsp niter kibbeh spiced butter
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tsp berbere
  • 2 sprigs rosemary
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • 2 jalapeños, seeded and cut in strips
  • 1 Roma tomato, diced

Method

  1. Heat the oil in a large skillet over high heat and sear the chicken in one layer, without stirring, for 3 minutes.
  2. Add the onion and cook, stirring, until it softens, about 4 minutes.
  3. Add the niter kibbeh, garlic, berbere, rosemary and salt and toss for 1 minute.
  4. Add the jalapeños and tomato and cook until the chicken reaches 165°F, about 3 minutes more.
  5. Serve sizzling with injera or rice.

Notes

Use mitmita instead of berbere for a hotter, sharper dish.

Beef sirloin cut the same way makes siga tibs; cook it to 145°F and let it rest 3 minutes.
