This is a simple chicken and rice dish from Lebanon that is eaten regularly in the region.
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 skinless, boneless chicken breasts
- 4 ounces diced onion
- 12 ounces ground beef
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon ground allspice
- ¾ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
- 1 ½ cups long grain rice
- 3 cups chicken broth
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
Step 2
Heat olive oil in a heavy, oven-safe skillet over high heat. Cook chicken breasts on both sides until golden brown, about 5 minutes per side. Remove chicken breasts from skillet and set aside. Add onion and ground beef to the skillet; cook until onions are starting to brown, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook for 1 to 2 minutes. Season with cinnamon, allspice, salt, and cayenne pepper. Cook and stir for 2 minutes.
Step 3
Stir rice into the skillet until fully coated with oil and spices. Place chicken breasts on top of the rice and pour in broth. Cover skillet with a tight-fitting lid or aluminum foil.
Step 4
Bake in the preheated oven until rice has absorbed all liquid, about 20 minutes. Remove from oven and sprinkle with parsley before serving.
Cook’s Note:
A cast-iron skillet works best for this dish. You can also use ground lamb instead of beef.
