👨🍳 Οδηγίες
- 1
Prepare the dough: In a large bowl, combine flour and salt. Gradually add warm water and mix until a soft, pliable dough forms. Knead for 5-7 minutes until smooth. Cover and let it rest for at least 30 minutes.
- 2
Prepare the filling: Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a pan over medium heat. Add chopped onion and sauté until translucent. Add minced garlic and cook for another minute.
- 3
Add the finely chopped chicken to the pan and cook until browned. Break up any clumps.
- 4
Stir in the diced mixed vegetables and tomato paste. Cook for 5-7 minutes until vegetables are tender-crisp.
- 5
Add the spices and salt. Cook for another minute, stirring well. Remove from heat and stir in the chopped cilantro. Let the filling cool completely.
- 6
Divide the rested dough into 4 equal portions. On a lightly floured surface, roll out each portion into a very thin circle, about 10-12 inches in diameter.
- 7
Place about 1/4 of the cooled chicken and vegetable filling in the center of each dough circle. Fold the edges of the dough over the filling to create a sealed parcel, similar to a calzone or a large dumpling.
- 8
Heat a lightly oiled griddle or non-stick pan over medium heat. Carefully place one stuffed mutabbaq onto the hot surface.
- 9
Cook for about 5-7 minutes per side, or until the dough is golden brown and crispy. Brush with beaten egg during the last minute of cooking for extra color and shine.

Repeat with the remaining mutabbaqs. Cut into wedges and serve hot.
