Magarına bulli

Magarına bulli is a traditional chicken dish originating from Northern Cyprus. The dish is usually made with a combination of chicken, pasta such as penne or macaroni, stock, salt, pepper, lemon juice, halloumi cheese, parsley, onions, garlic, olive oil, and mint. The onions, garlic, and a half of lemon is stuck in the cavity of the bird. It's drizzled with olive oil and seasoned with salt and pepper. Once roasted, the chicken is carved and the meat is then mixed with pasta that has been boiled in stock. The dish is sprinkled with grated halloumi and garnished with mint, parsley, and a squeeze of lemon juice on top.
