I’m all about easy when it comes to midweek dinner, and this recipe couldn’t be any easier. So juicy and delicious, a staple in my household. Serve it alongside aromatic rice, a simple salad, tahini yogurt sauce, and if you like, some fries, and you’re all set 🤎🤎

Place the charcoal on the foil immediately add some of the frying oil, that will produce smoke add the broth and wrap immediately with foil. Bake for 10 minutes and it’s ready to enjoy!
