For this kind of recipe use if possible a free-range chicken or even better an organic one, but if yours is intensively farmed, pay attention to cooking to avoid finding it spoiled.
If the rice is not cooked when there is no more liquid, add more hot water, otherwise finish cooking uncovered.
After this ethnic dish, bring to the table some Arab sweets, very sweet but very tasty, such as lokum or gazelle horns.
