A sweet-salty Ottoman dish made with chicken cooked with apricot, grape, almond, and honey; it carries on the palace kitchen's tradition of fruity meat dishes.

It establishes a table arrangement centered around meat broth and yogurt, warmer than olive oil-based stuffed leaves; the raw filling cooks together.
