Number Of Ingredients 20

2 boneless skinless chicken breasts, pounded thin
sea salt
fresh ground pepper
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 1/2 cups white basmati rice
3 cups chicken stock (I use just a little less for what I find perfect rice)
1/4 teaspoon middle eastern mixed spice (Baharat Aka Middle East Mixed Spices - the Real Mix)
1/4 teaspoon kabsa spices (Saudi Kabsa Spice Mix)
1 pinch turmeric
salt
2 cups canned tomato puree (or Basic Nomato Sauce (Tomato Free Tomato Sauce) to be tomato free)
1 tablespoon tomato paste (none if you are tomato free)
salt
fresh ground pepper
1 teaspoon olive oil
1/4 teaspoon middle eastern mixed spice (Baharat Aka Middle East Mixed Spices - the Real Mix)
1 pinch ground cumin
1 teaspoon tahini
4 garlic cloves, crushed
chicken stock, if needed (or water)

Steps:

Season chicken breasts with olive oil, salt and pepper, cook over high heat, turning when golden.
Rince basmati rice well and soak in cold water for 20 minutes.
Drain.
In a deep pan add all ingredients under rice heading, bring to boil, reduce heat and simmer covered on low for 14-20 minutes until done.
For the sauce stir all the ingredients under daqous heading in a medium pot.
Simmer until well combined over low heat adding additional liquid if needed.
Serve chicken breast alongside basmati rice with Daqous & a green salad.
Enjoy.
