    Drain the rice and add it the the pan with the broth, 2 teaspoons salt, dill and bring to a boil.
    Remove from the heat and add the chicken on top.

    I made this dish and used oregano instead of dill. It was absolutely delicious and the chicken was crispy brown and fell off the bone. The rice and spinach was perfect. I will definitely make this again! Thank you for your recipes ❤

    I totally agree with you. I’ve been browning my spinach in the oven for about a year now. Always found browning it on the stove. Yes you have grease all over the place. Not fun to clean up. Your dish looks delicious. Take care.❤

    We follow the Plant Paradox lectin free diet and only eat rice that’s been pressure cooked. How would I add and adjust cooking times for precooked Basmati rice? This dish looks delicious and I would love to try it!
