"Musakhan (Arabic: مسخّن) is a Palestinian dish composed of roasted chicken baked with onions, sumac, allspice, saffron, and fried pine nuts served over taboon bread.
The dish is simple to make and the ingredients needed are easily obtainable, which may account for the dish's popularity. Many of the ingredients used: olive oil, sumac and pine nuts are frequently found in Palestinian cuisine.
Musakhan is a dish that one typically eats with one's hands. It is usually presented with the chicken on top of the bread, and could be served with soup. The term 'musakhan' literally means 'something that is heated'."

Notes: For a change, this recipe is
taken not from a historical cookbook, but from the comments on an
episode of Curb Your Enthusiasm on the discussion board at
www.avclub.com, following a
classic episode called “Palestinian Chicken”. If you haven't seen
it yet, I recommend it.
