“An everyday dish of Middle Eastern origin, simple to make, with a slightly exotic flavor. It isn't fancy, but my family loves it. My husband's father used to make it.” - by KELLYJEANNE

- Remove chicken from skillet, and shred. Return to skillet, and mix in the rice. Cover, and continue cooking 20 minutes, until rice is tender, and liquid has been absorbed.

"To avoid over drying I cut the cooking for the chicken to about fifteen minutes. What really made this dish however was that I substituted chicken broth for the water. The rice absorbed the broth and ..." See moreit had a wonderful flavor. I didn't have any pine nuts so I roasted up some pecans. It was an excellant dish which we'll have again."
