Instructions:

    Step 1
  • In a large pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and sauté until they become soft and translucent.
  • Step 2
  • Add the minced garlic and ginger to the onions and cook for another 2 minutes, stirring frequently.
  • Step 3
  • Stir in the berbere spice, paprika, cayenne pepper, cumin, cardamom, and coriander. Cook the spices for a few minutes to release their flavors.
  • Step 4
  • Add the chicken pieces to the pot and brown them on all sides in the spicy onion mixture.
  • Step 5
  • Pour in the chicken broth and tomato paste, stirring well to combine. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Step 6
  • Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 60-75 minutes, or until the chicken is tender and cooked through. If the sauce thickens too much, you can add a bit more chicken broth.
  • Step 7
  • About 15 minutes before serving, gently place the hard-boiled eggs into the simmering stew to soak up the flavors.
  • Step 8
  • Serve the Doro Wat hot with injera (Ethiopian flatbread) or rice. Garnish with additional berbere spice if desired.
