Ingredients:

Serving

2 oz unsalted butter
1 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
2 red onions, cut into thick rings
1 clove garlic, sliced
2 long red peppers, seeded and cut into rings
2 long green peppers, seeded and cut into rings
2 long green chiles, seeded and diced
1 heaped tsp ground cumin
1 level tsp ground cinnamon
generous splash of sherry
2 large vine-ripened tomatoes, skinned, seeded and diced
2 oz bulgur, washed
1 1/2 cups chicken stock
1 stick cinnamon
2 star anise
few sprigs thyme
2 1- lb chickens
sea salt
freshly ground black pepper
1 tbsp olive oil
2 oz sucuk, sliced
4 medjool dates, seeded and cut into quarters

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 400°F. Heat the butter and extra-virgin olive oil in a heavy-based casserole dish. Gently sweat the onions, garlic, peppers and chiles with the cumin and cinnamon for about 5 minutes, or until the vegetables soften. Add the sherry, tomatoes, bulgur, chicken stock, cinnamon, star anise and thyme and bring to the boil. Lower the heat, then cover and simmer gently for 5 minutes.
Meanwhile, cut the chickens into quarters and season lightly with salt and pepper.
In another heavy-based frying pan, heat the olive oil over a medium heat and brown the meat lightly all over. Add the sucuk and fry until golden brown on both sides. Transfer the poussins and sucuk to the casserole dish and tuck in the dates. Cover the pan and cook in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Taste and adjust the seasoning and serve immediately.
