500g chicken breast or Tenderloins
\nDash of Cinnamon for Chicken
\n1 tablespoon Ghee
\n500g mince
\n1\u20444 cup Vegetable oil
\n31\u20444 cups boiling Water
\n2 cups medium grain rice, washed thoroughly
\n21\u20442 heaped teaspoons Lebanese mixed spice (baharat)
\nSalt to taste
\nWhite ground pepper & black ground pepper (approx 1\u20444 teaspoon each)
\nToasted almonds and pine nuts
\nchopped parsley (garnish)<\/p>\n
Clean chicken, if large pieces cut in half or score the flesh. Rub cinnamon, salt & pepper into the chicken.
\nIn a large pot add 1 tbsp ghee and cook the chicken on both sides till cooked through, remove from heat set aside and shred when cool to touch.
\nAdd mince in the same pot and cook till brown and the fat evaporates, once all water\/fat evaporates add washed rice, shredded chicken, boiling water, vegetable oil, baharat, salt (approx 2 tspn), black and white pepper and mix, taste the stock to see if it needs more salt etc then once it comes to a boil lower heat to very low and put lid on.
\nI’ve never timed it but once the rice is cooked I turn off the heat and let steam for a further 5 mins then I place in a bowl or as pictured I used a cake tin then scatter toasted nuts, parsley and pomegranate if you have.
\nServe with salad of choice and yogurt.
\nI’m not the best at typing up recipes especially when most dishes I don’t measure so these measurements are rough so please go with your gut and own taste buds. Enjoy!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
