Chicken Haleem is a rich, slow-cooked dish with a wholesome mixture of chicken, lentils, nuts and broken wheat. This is one of the most popular dish in Hyderabadi cuisine. Legend has it that it takes nearly a week to make a perfect dish of haleem, but my 7-8 hours of slow cooking give it an amazing flavor and texture- you'll be licking your lips after a satisfying meal. Served with a whole wheat naan.

Good flavor and with a kick of heat
I love Chef Nasreen's food, and the flavor was amazing on this dish. However, I was expecting larger pieces of chicken in the stew. Rather the chicken feels like it's almost dissolved into the stew.
