Season the chicken pieces with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Brown the chicken pieces on all sides in batches, being careful not to overcrowd the pan. Remove the browned chicken and set aside.

Add the chopped onion to the same skillet and sauté until softened and translucent, about 5-7 minutes. Add the minced garlic, paprika, coriander, and cumin, and cook for another minute until fragrant.

In a food processor, combine the finely ground walnuts with the sautéed onion and garlic mixture. Gradually add the chicken broth while processing until a smooth, thick sauce forms.
💡 نصائح احترافية: If you don't have a food processor, you can finely mince the walnuts and garlic and mix them with the sautéed onions and broth. - 4
Return the browned chicken to the skillet with the walnut sauce. Stir to coat the chicken evenly. Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and cook for 45-60 minutes, or until the chicken is tender and the sauce has thickened.
💡 نصائح احترافية: Simmering gently allows the flavors to meld and the chicken to become very tender. - 5
Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper to taste. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley before serving.
💡 نصائح احترافية: Taste and adjust seasoning at the end, as the flavors will have intensified during cooking.
