Stewed Chicken with Poached Eggs

HOW TO MAKE STEWED CHICKEN WITH POACHED EGGS

Step 1: Grind the peeled garlic, saffron and nutmeg in a mortar. Add the lemon juice, salt and mix well.

Step 2: Place the chicken in a glass bowl and rub it with the previous mixture.

Step 3: In a saucepan, add the margarine and the onion cut into chunks and cook over low heat until the onion start to turn golden brown. Add the chicken with the marinade and cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Pour the water (enough water to completely cover the chicken) and season with a bunch of coriander and parsley. Cover the pan with a lid and cook over medium-low heat for about one hour.

Step 4: Meanwhile, pour the water and a few drops of vinegar into a saucepan and boil over medium-high heat. When start to see little bubbles coming from the bottom of the pan, add the eggs and let them poach over medium heat for about 3 to 4 minutes.

Step 5: On a plate, add a bread slice and, on top, the chicken and the poached egg. Drizzle with the sauce, sprinkle with cinnamon and serve.
