Add the chicken pieces and cook until lightly browned on all sides.
Stir in the tomatoes and tomato paste, cooking until softened.
Add the spices (turmeric, cinnamon, black pepper, cumin, cardamom, loomi, and salt). Stir well to coat the chicken.
Pour in 6 cups of water and bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce heat and let it simmer for about 40 minutes.
Step 2: Add Vegetables
Add the cubed potatoes and sliced zucchini to the pot. Continue simmering for another 15 minutes until the vegetables are tender.
Step 3: Assemble the Tashreeb
In a large serving dish, layer the torn Khubz Regag or pita bread.
Gently pour the hot broth over the bread, allowing it to soak and soften.
Arrange the chicken and vegetables on top.
Garnish with fresh cilantro, if desired.
