Hearty chicken pilaf where boiled and shredded chicken meets rice cooked grain by grain with butter. A beloved classic of restaurants, this pilaf offers a hearty main dish on its own with the protein of chicken and chickpeas.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Prepare the rice

5 min

Wash the rice in lukewarm water until it runs clear, then drain.

2

Sauté

6 min

Melt the butter in a pot and sauté the shredded chicken and chickpeas for a few minutes. Add the drained rice and sauté until the grains are coated in the butter.

3

Cook

15 min

Add the hot chicken stock, salt and black pepper; once it comes to a boil, reduce to low heat, cover with a lid and cook until the liquid is absorbed.

4

Let it steep

10 min

Turn off the heat, cover the lid with a clean cloth and let it steam for 10 minutes. Fluff with a fork and serve.

Reminder

Important: Make sure the chicken is fully cooked; using the poaching liquid as the rice's cooking water boosts the flavor. Contains gluten and dairy. Getting fluffy, separate rice grains depends on washing and letting the rice steep. Keeps in the fridge for a few days.

Editor's Note Editörün Notu

Straining the chicken poaching liquid and using it as the rice's cooking water gives a far more aromatic result than plain water. Adding chickpeas makes the rice more filling.
