These succulent chicken thighs laid on top of fragrant caramelised onions and soft flatbreads make for a delicious dinner.
SERVES: 4 (2 flatbreads each)
Place the chicken thighs in a mixing bowl and add the lemon juice, sumac, baharat, garlic and olive oil. Season generously with salt & pepper and toss to combine. Set aside to marinate for at least 30 minutes, or even overnight.
While the chicken is marinating, add a splash of oil to a large frypan over medium-high heat. Add the onions and sauté for about 20 minutes, until softened and golden. Sprinkle with the remaining sumac and stir through, cooking for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Pre-heat the oven to 220°C. Nestle the chicken thighs into the onions and place in the oven to roast for 20 – 25 minutes. Then, switch the oven to grill for 5 extra minutes until the chicken is golden and lightly charred on top.
Arrange your toasted flat breads on a platter and top with the onions and chicken. Sprinkle over the toasted pine nuts & mint to serve.

METHOD
Combine the flour and yoghurt together in a bowl and leave to rest for 10 minutes.
Divide the dough into 8 sections and roll into balls. Working one at a time, roll each dough ball out, using a little oil to prevent sticking. Cook in a frypan over high heat for about 20 – 30 seconds each side, until golden and cooked through.
