Best Glazed Chicken And Raisin Pilaf Recipes
PERSIAN CHICKEN PILAF
The key to a perfect Persian pilaf is cooking the rice until it's lightly spiced and fluffy then adding fresh herbs, pomegranate, raisins and chicken. Don't forget to serve everyone some of the crust on the bottom - that's the best bit!

Steps:
- Soak the rice in cold water for 30 minutes. Rinse and drain.
- Meanwhile, heat a glug of oil in a shallow casserole with a lid and, in batches, brown the chicken all over. Remove and set aside.
- In the same casserole, melt the butter, then add the cinnamon stick, zest, pomegranate molasses and raisins. Fry for 2 minutes, then remove from the pan and set aside.
- Spoon a thin layer of washed rice over the bottom of the casserole. In a large bowl, toss the remaining rice with the set-aside fruit/zest/spices and season well. Spoon into the casserole, then top with the chicken, pushing the pieces into the rice. Pour over the water. Using a chopstick (or similar), make 4-5 holes in the rice and pour over the saffron and its cooking water. Wrap the casserole lid in a clean tea towel and cover the pan, tucking in the ends away from the flame. Cook gently for 30 minutes.
- Spoon onto a platter and top with pine nuts, herbs and fried onions, then serve with yogurt.
