Zubereitung von Afghan Rice Pilaf With Chicken And Yogurt Bor Pilau
- Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add 1 large onion, thinly sliced, and cook until soft and golden brown (about 5-7 minutes).
- Add 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into 1-inch pieces, and cook until golden brown on all sides (about 8-10 minutes).
- Add 4 cloves garlic, minced, and cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
- Stir in 1 cup plain yogurt, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon ground red pepper (or 1 teaspoon paprika and a pinch of cayenne), and 1 tablespoon ground cilantro.
- Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the chicken is cooked through and tender (about 20-25 minutes).
- Meanwhile, rinse 2 cups basmati rice thoroughly and soak in 4 cups of water for at least 30 minutes.
- Drain the soaked rice. In a large pot, bring 5 cups of water to a boil. Add the drained rice.
- Bring back to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 12-15 minutes, or until the rice is cooked through and tender. Drain any excess water in a colander.
- In a large oven-safe pan, layer half of the cooked rice.
- Top with the cooked chicken and its sauce.
- Layer with the remaining rice. Sprinkle evenly with 1/4 teaspoon saffron threads, 1/4 teaspoon ground cardamom, and an additional pinch of red pepper.
- Cover the pan tightly with a lid. Increase heat for 1 minute to bring the juices to a boil. Then, transfer to a preheated 300°F (150°C) oven and bake for 45 minutes, or until heated through and slightly browned on top.
