Why chicken bread is the snack you need this Eid!
Eid ul Adha means lots of delicious food and time with loved ones!
But hey, between diving into that biryani and skewering kebabs, it’s great to have a simple, tasty snack on hand.
Something everyone can just grab and nibble on while they're chatting and laughing together.
And then the Chicken Bread swoops in just in time.
It's the perfect snack for any Eid party – super easy to grab and yummy, keeping everyone's hunger at bay while the main dishes are coming together.
So, come... let’s see why chicken bread is the snack you need this Eid!
What’s up with chicken bread?
Chicken Bread is the ultimate snack: Freshly baked bread stuffed with a creamy, savory chicken mix.
You've got fluffy bread wrapped around a hearty filling of chicken, cheese, and herbs, all baked until it's perfectly golden.
It hits the spot when you're looking for something a bit lighter than those meaty mains but still need something to munch on.
Making your own chicken bread
1. Making your own chicken bread
To make a good Chicken Bread, you start with the basics: the dough.
Mix flour, a lil bit of yeast, a touch of sugar, and salt with water and a little oil. Knead it well. The dough should be soft, stretchy, and left to rise until it doubles in size, creating the perfect base for the filling.
2. Mixing up the filling
Meanwhile, prepare the chicken filling by sautéing chicken pieces with onions, and seasoning them with salt, pepper, and other spices to ensure every bite is flavorful.
Once the chicken is cooked and seasoned, it’s time to combine it with a batter made from butter and flour, mixed gradually with milk until you achieve a smooth and thick sauce.
Add the cooked chicken to this mixture, then toss in vegetables like carrots, cabbage, and capsicum for added texture and freshness.
3. Wrapping up the bread
Now, the exciting part: Assembly.
Roll out the risen dough into a rectangle and spread the chicken mixture down the center. For plain Chicken Bread, fold over the dough from both sides to encase the filling, and seal the edges.
If you prefer a more decorative look, cut slits along the sides of the dough and braid it over the filling, ensuring each layer overlaps slightly to hold in all the tasty ingredients.
4. Baking to perfection
Let the prepared loaf have one final rise before brushing it with egg wash and sprinkling sesame seeds on top for an extra crunch and elegance.
Then bake it in the preheated oven and bake until the bread is puffed up and golden brown. Before you know it, your kitchen will smell amazing as though you've been baking all day with a whole lot of love.
