Recipe By Slurrp

Awaze Chicken Thigh is a flavorful Ethiopian dish made with marinated chicken thighs cooked in a spicy and aromatic sauce called awaze. The awaze sauce is made with a blend of spices, including berbere, garlic, ginger, and paprika, along with tomato paste and lemon juice. The chicken thighs are marinated in the sauce for a few hours to absorb the flavors, then grilled or baked until tender and juicy. Awaze Chicken Thigh is typically served with injera, a traditional Ethiopian flatbread.
