1. 1

   Heat 2 Tbsp olive oil in a large pan with a lid over medium heat.

   💡 Proffstips: Use a pan that can accommodate all the chicken pieces.
2. 2

   Sauté the chopped onion until soft and translucent, about 5-7 minutes.

3. 3

   Add the minced garlic and sauté for another 2-3 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to brown it.

4. 4

   Pour in the pomegranate juice concentrate, sweetened pomegranate juice, honey, broth, cumin, ginger, allspice, and turmeric. Stir to combine.

   💡 Proffstips: Ensure all spices are well incorporated.
5. 5

   Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to an active simmer. Cook uncovered for about 20 minutes, or until the sauce has reduced by about half and is slightly thickened.

   💡 Proffstips: Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
6. 6

   Remove the sauce from heat and set aside.

   💡 Proffstips: You can taste and adjust seasoning at this point.
7. 7

   Rinse the chicken parts and pat them thoroughly dry. Season generously with salt and pepper.

   💡 Proffstips: Drying the chicken is crucial for browning.
8. 8

   Heat the remaining 2 Tbsp olive oil in the same pan (or a separate oven-safe skillet) over medium-high heat. Brown the chicken pieces on all sides.

   💡 Proffstips: Work in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding the pan.
9. 9

   Return all chicken pieces to the pan. Pour the reserved pomegranate-honey sauce over the chicken.

   💡 Proffstips: Ensure the sauce coats the chicken pieces evenly.
10. 10

    Cover the pan with a lid and simmer on low heat for 35-40 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and tender.

    💡 Proffstips: The chicken should reach an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
11. 11

    Remove the chicken from the pan and place it on a serving platter.

    💡 Proffstips: Tent loosely with foil to keep warm.
12. 12

    If the sauce in the pan is too thin, simmer it uncovered for a few more minutes to reduce and thicken.

    💡 Proffstips: Be careful not to burn the sauce.
13. 13

    Pour the thickened sauce over the chicken. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley and pomegranate seeds before serving.

    💡 Proffstips: Serve immediately.
