Getting Familiar With Delicious Palestinian Stuffed Chicken

When grandma cooks, twenty times out of ten it's fire. Doesn't matter who's grandma it is or where grandma came from, a recipe coming straight from her is unequivocally a banger. A meal from grandma means a meal cooked with love and care, one that comforts as much as it satisfies.

So when Foodbeast Marc Kharrat came upon a Palestinian dish that literally translates to 'grandma's stuffed chicken', we all knew it's automatically a must have.

Jerusalem Chicken, a Palestinian restaurant in Los Angeles, California, serves up delicacies such as the tangy and tantalizing Musakhan and flavorful cauliflower fritters called Mshat. But the scene stealer at this local gem was the Siti's Stuffed Chicken. 'Sitti' in Arabic means 'grandma', which is only fitting, being that the stuffed chicken is a treasured family recipe passed down from the owner's grandma herself.

"The dish is a labor of love. generously stuffing each cornish hen by hand. The stuffing mixture is made of rice, mushrooms and beef, which is stuffed carefully under the skin," gushed Marc after experiencing the dish itself.

With such high praise and the backing of grandma's love, it's no wonder that Jerusalem Chicken is putting on for Palestinian food in all the delectable ways.
