If you ever had the privilege to visit any Yemeni restaurant in the world, you would have definitely noticed the Haneed recipe on the menu, be it chicken and meat. Usually the Yemeni chicken Haneed recipe is made in a tandoor a kind of clay oven made with hot coals, but as not all of us have the luxury to own a tandoor at home, you can very well make this dish with the help of a pressure cooker and a general at home oven.

is generally made with the whole chicken or cut into four pieces. I, however, as always prefer using the boneless chicken breast pieces as that is the preference of my kids. You can make this dish with any kind of pieces that you like.

the yemeni chicken haneed recipe is pretty simple to make
