Ingredients for Spiced Matzo-Stuffed Chicken Breasts

• 1 بصلة كبيرة، مفرومة

• 1 red pepper, chopped

• 6 tablespoons olive oil, divided

• ٢ فصوص ثوم، مفرومة

• 950ml packaged matzo farfel (small pieces of matzo)

• 80g shelled pistachios, chopped

• 1/2 cup golden raisins

• 1/3 cup chopped flat-leaf parsley

• 2 بيضات كبيرة

• 425ml reduced-sodium chicken broth, divided

• 2 teaspoons ground coriander

• 1 teaspoon hot paprika or 1/2 teaspoons cayenne

• 3/4 teaspoons ground cinnamon

• 1/2 teaspoons ground allspice

• 1/4 teaspoons ground cloves

• 6 boneless chicken breast halves with skin (about 1.4kg )

• 120 مل نبيذ أبيض جاف

• 1 teaspoon potato starch

Preheat oven to 218°C with racks in upper and lower thirds.

Cook onion and pepper in 45ml oil in a 12-inch heavy skillet over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until softened and golden, about 15 minutes. Add garlic and cook, stirring frequently, 2 minutes.

While onion mixture cooks, rinse matzo farfel in a colander under warm running water until softened, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Drain, pressing gently to extract excess water.

Remove onion mixture from heat and stir in farfel, pistachios, raisins, parsley, 3/4 teaspoons salt, and 1/2 teaspoons pepper. Whisk together eggs and 180ml broth, then stir into farfel mixture.

Set aside 350ml stuffing and transfer remainder to a generously oiled 1 1/2-quart shallow baking dish.

Bake stuffing in dish in lower third of oven until set and golden, about 30 minutes.

While stuffing bakes, stir together spices with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoons pepper in a large bowl.

Insert a paring knife horizontally into middle of thicker end of each chicken breast half, stopping about 1 inch from opposite end, then open incision with your finger to create a 1-inch-wide pocket. Pack 45ml stuffing into each pocket. Pat chicken dry and add to spices, tossing to coat.

Straddle a large flameproof roasting pan across 2 burners, then add remaining 45ml oil and heat over medium-high heat until it shimmers. Sear chicken, skin side down, until skin is deep golden, about 5 minutes. Turn chicken over, then roast in upper third of oven until just cooked through, 16 to 20 minutes.

Transfer chicken to a platter and straddle roasting pan across 2 burners, then add wine and deglaze by boiling, stirring and scraping up brown bits, 1 minute. Stir in 180ml broth. Whisk together remaining 60ml broth and potato starch and whisk into sauce, then cook, whisking, until slightly thickened, about 2 minutes. Strain sauce through a fine-mesh sieve into a measuring cup. Let stand until fat rises to top, 1 to 2 minutes, then skim off and discard fat (or use a fat separator). Season sauce with salt.
