Ingredients

1b Pasta Casarecce

5 chicken legs bone in skin on

1 white onion chopped

3 garlic cloves chopped

15oz tomato sauce

1. cups water

1 bay leaf

1 cinnamon stick

½ teaspoon Salt

¼ teaspoon ground Cumin

¼ teaspoon ground Coriander

1 tablespoon of harissa sauce (mild)

Dry Myzithra cheese for garnish

Preparation

In a medium pot of water, add 1 tablespoon salt and once boiling add in your pasta,cook until al dente. Set aside and add 1 teaspoon olive oil to prevent sticking.

In a medium braiser, such as Le Creuset add in 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Once hot, add your chicken legs and sauté on both sides for a few minutes. Now remove the chicken legs into a bowl set aside for now. Add in your chopped onions and garlic and sauté for a few minutes until translucent. Then pour the tomato sauce in and water. Add the bay leaf and cinnamon stick into your sauce along with all the spices, salt and pepper and harissa sauce. Add back in the semi cooked chicken legs along with the juices. Simmer on low for 30-35 minutes covered on the stovetop, during that time turn the legs over once or twice to cook evenly.

In a plate, add the pasta then add the chicken and a bit of sauce along with dry Myzithra. Toast a few slices of sourdough bread and eat up!
