About the dish

Pita ćora is a traditional Bosnian savory pastry where pieces of chicken meat and onion are wrapped in yufka sheets, then arranged in the baking tray and baked. The first step is to make the yufka dough, stretch it to the desired thickness, and then cut it into squares. The chicken is cut into pieces, and so is the onion, and each piece, together with some onion, is placed on a yufka square and wrapped. Small packets are arranged in a greased baking tray, baked, then poured over with boiling salted water or chicken broth to soften it, and baked a bit more.
