Description
This Persian chicken with aromatic rice is an explosion of flavors that will transport you to the Middle East. The combination of turmeric, cumin, lime and coriander creates a symphony of aromas that perfectly complements the juiciness of the chicken. The basmati rice, cooked with cardamom and cinnamon, adds an exotic and delicate touch. I usually prepare this dish when I want to surprise my guests with something different and tasty. It is ideal for a special dinner or a festive meal. Go ahead and try it, you will love it! You can add a little chili if you like it spicy.

Chicken preparation
Cut 1 chicken breast into pieces. Peel and cut 1 onion into quarters. Peel 4 cloves of garlic. Introduce the onion and garlic into the bowl and chop 3 sec./Stufe 5.

Rice cooking
Wash 1 cup of basmati rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Crush 1 clove of garlic. Heat a little oil in a frying pan (outside of the Thermomix). Add the washed rice and crushed garlic. Stir for 1 minute. Add 3 cardamom seeds, 0.25 tsp cinnamon and 2 cups of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover and cook until the water evaporates. Reserve.
Cook the chicken
Heat a little oil in a frying pan (outside of the Thermomix). Add the marinated chicken and cook over high heat for 5 minutes, stirring constantly. Then, cover the pan and cook over medium heat for 6 minutes.
Add the yogurt
Remove the pan from the heat and add 1 plain yogurt to the chicken. Cover the pan to keep warm.
Plating
Wash and chop 1 bunch of coriander and mint. Plate: first the rice, then the chicken and finally the fresh herbs and 1 handful of chopped pistachios. Serve immediately.
