Kazandibi with Chicken is a Turkish milk pudding made with finely shredded chicken breast, then caramelized on the bottom of the pan. It is chilled before serving, so the pudding sets and can be sliced.
Yes, traditional Kazandibi with Chicken contains boiled chicken breast shredded into very fine fibers. The chicken is mixed into the milk pudding, though some modern or commercial versions leave it out.
Kazandibi with Chicken tastes primarily like a lightly sweet, milky pudding with a caramelized underside. Properly shredded chicken does not make it taste like a savory chicken dish; it mainly adds a fine, slightly fibrous texture.
Kazandibi with Chicken is made by stirring finely shredded, boiled chicken breast into a milk pudding thickened with starch or flour. The pudding is poured into a pan with a caramelized base, chilled until set, and cut into slices.
Kazandibi with Chicken has the same kind of milk pudding as tavuk göğsü, but its underside is caramelized against the pan. Tavuk göğsü is usually served without that browned layer; both can contain finely shredded chicken.
The bottom of Kazandibi with Chicken is deliberately browned with sugar to create its characteristic caramel layer. The pan is heated before or after the pudding is added; careful, even heating gives color without making the sugar bitter.
Yes, you can make a chicken-free version of Kazandibi with Chicken by leaving out the shredded breast. It will still be a caramelized milk pudding, but it will not have the traditional chicken-containing texture or be the classic preparation.
Serve Kazandibi with Chicken chilled and sliced, with the caramelized side facing up. It is a dessert rather than a hot pudding, and chilling it first helps the slices hold their shape when lifted from the pan.
Kazandibi with Chicken keeps for about 2–3 days in a covered container in the refrigerator. Because it contains milk and cooked chicken, refrigerate leftovers promptly rather than leaving them at room temperature.
Freezing Kazandibi with Chicken is not recommended. Thawing can make the milk pudding watery or grainy and soften its caramelized layer; refrigerating it and eating it fresh gives a better texture.

Kazandibi with Chicken is a traditional Turkish milk pudding made with sugar and starch, with boiled chicken breast finely shredded and mixed in. As it cooks, the base is browned against the pan, giving the dessert its distinctive caramelised flavour and its name, which means “bottom of the pan”.
Served chilled and cut into slices, it has a smooth, milky texture with delicate strands of chicken. In Turkey it is often finished with cinnamon and enjoyed with tea; elsewhere, it makes a distinctive end to a meal or a small afternoon treat. It is mainly a sweet, carbohydrate-rich dessert, with 130 calories per 100 g. A modest slice alongside unsweetened tea keeps the serving light.
