Why do I call it “Funeral Chicken”? When my uncle passed, I made this dish for my family. In Lebanese culture, we try to ease the burden for those who are grieving. The next day, everyone asked me for the recipe because apparently, my chicken helped them forget their sorrows for a moment.Since chicken quarters are affordable, I decided to make this meal for the entire varsity football team before their crossover games. It’s a budget-friendly and delicious! They won the game! Winner winner chicke

This recipe is delicious with roast chicken or my go-to for leftover Thanksgiving turkey! I use the same roasting recipe to prepare my turkey and then make this nourishing pot pie the next day. This recipe was originally written for the cookbook but got cut for space, so I figured this was the perfect time to share! 😇❤️ | Turkuaz Kitchen
