How to Make Easy Saudi Kabsa Zainab S Gluten Free

1. Season 1 lb chicken breasts with 1 tbsp olive oil, 1 tsp salt, and ½ tsp black pepper. Cook over high heat in a large skillet, turning occasionally, until golden brown (about 5-7 minutes per side).
2. Rinse 1 ½ cups basmati rice thoroughly and soak in cold water for 20 minutes.
3. Drain the soaked rice completely.
4. In a large pot or Dutch oven, combine the drained rice with 3 cups chicken broth, 1 tsp ground cumin, ½ tsp turmeric, ¼ tsp saffron threads (optional), and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 14-20 minutes, or until the rice is cooked through and the liquid is absorbed.
5. For the Daqous sauce, combine 1 (14.5 oz) can diced tomatoes, 1 small onion (finely chopped), 2 cloves garlic (minced), ½ tsp ground cumin, ¼ tsp black pepper, and 2 tbsp olive oil in a medium saucepan.
6. Simmer the Daqous sauce over low heat for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until thickened. Add a splash of water if needed to adjust consistency.
7. Serve the cooked chicken breasts over a bed of fragrant basmati rice. Top with the delicious Daqous sauce and a fresh green salad.
8. Enjoy your authentic and flavorful Gluten-Free Saudi Kabsa!
