Step-by-Step Instructions

Prepare Vegetables and Spices:

1

Chop coriander, onion, green pepper, and jalapeño. Add minced garlic, minced ginger, and all spices. Pour in vegetable oil and crush the ingredients to release their aroma.

Cook the Chicken:

2

Add the aromatic mixture to the whole chicken in a pan. Stir on high heat to coat the chicken with the spices. Pour 3 cups of water, cover, and cook until the chicken is tender. Once cooked, set the chicken aside.

Prepare the Rice:

3

Rinse the basmati rice and add it to the chicken stock. Adjust the salt to taste, and cook until the rice is fully cooked and flavorful.

Combine and Serve:

4

Place the cooked chicken on the rice, cover, and simmer for a few minutes to let the flavours meld together.

Pro Tip: Marinate the chicken in the spice mixture for a few hours before cooking to enhance the flavour.

Customization & Variations

  • For fish lovers, use the same recipe for fish like cod or tilapia.
  • Make It Vegan: Swap the chicken for tofu or roasted vegetables.
  • Add Extra Spice: Boost the heat with more jalapeños or a pinch of Bahaurji’s Signature Arabian Spice.

Best Pairings

  • Pairs well with a side of roasted vegetables or a fresh salad.
