Ingredients
  • 100 g barley flour
  • 1.25 cup water
  • 0.25 tsp salt
  • 85 g boneless skinless chicken breast
  • 1 tsp olive oil
  • 1 pinch black pepper
  • 0.5 tsp berbere seasoning
  • 0.5 tsp honey
Method
  1. 01In a heavy-bottomed pot, bring 300 ml of water mixed with 1/4 tsp salt to a rolling boil over high heat.
  2. 02Gradually whisk in the barley flour in a steady stream, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon to prevent lumps.
  3. 03Reduce heat to medium-low and cook, vigorously stirring and beating the porridge against the sides of the pot until it forms a very stiff, smooth, elastic mound (about 8-10 minutes).
  4. 04While the porridge simmers, heat the extra-virgin olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.
  5. 05Add the finely diced chicken breast, berbere, and black pepper; cook until the chicken is golden brown, opaque throughout, and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C), about 5-6 minutes.
  6. 06Scoop the hot barley porridge into a mound on a plate, using a wet wooden spoon to press a deep crater in the center.
  7. 07Spoon the cooked chicken and spiced oil into the crater, drizzle the honey over the top, and serve piping hot.
