This is the first time I’ve ever cooked with sumac, and I will definitely find ways to sneak this unique spice into my foods in the future! It is deep red in color, aromatic with notes of pink peppercorns and citrus. It tastes like dried lemons and ancho chilies all at once, with a tart, piquant surprise on the tongue. This would pair well with chicken, and fish.
This recipe is an adjusted version from Cooking Light. Who doesn’t like a one pan/sheet pan roasted dinner/lunch? It is quick, easy and would help with meal planning for the week.
Because of the ease, the wonderful flavors, the great bold colors, this is a mean for all the senses and rated high to those that I served it to.
