Instructions
- 1
Dice the onion, crush the garlic, cut the chicken into cubes, drain the sauerkraut, and chop it finely.
- 2
Heat the butter and vegetable oil in a pot, soften the onion for 4 minutes, turn the garlic for 30 seconds, add the chicken, and sear all sides for 6 minutes.
10 min10:00 - 3
Add the tomato paste and fry for 2 minutes; add the salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes and stir for 30 seconds.
2 min02:30 - 4
Add the sauerkraut and bulgur and turn for 1 minute; add 2.5 cups hot water, cover, and cook over low heat for 25 minutes until the bulgur gives firm separate grains.
25 min25:00 - 5
Remove from the heat, cover the lid with a cloth, and rest for 8 minutes; stir and check the consistency.
8 min08:00 - 6
Divide into serving bowls, crown with finely chopped dill, and serve hot.
💡 Tip: If the sauerkraut is very sour, rinse it in cold water for 5 minutes; otherwise the acidity overwhelms the bulgur before it cooks into distinct grains. Do not add the water before frying the tomato paste in fat for 2 minutes.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve the hot bowl with fresh dill and, if desired, a spoonful of homemade yogurt; a cold glass of ayran goes well with pickle juice on the side.
