MOORISH CHICKEN (15TH CENTURY PORTUGAL)

Posted to the SCA_recipes LiveJournal community. This is a Portuguese reinvention of a Moorish dish; a real Muslim dish would not have bacon. "Cut up a fat hen and cook on a mild flame, with 2 spoons of fat, some bacon slices, lots of coriander, a pinch of parsley, some mint leaves, salt and a large onion. Cover and let it get golden brown, stirring once in a while. Then cover hen with water and let boil, and season with salt, vinegar, cloves, saffron, black pepper and ginger. When chicken is cooked, pour in 4 beaten yolks. Then take a deep dish, lined with slices of bread, and pour chicken on top."
