I was really looking forward to tonight's dinner of Persian-style chicken and crispy rice with summer squash, currants and lemon yogurt. I was not disappointed. This dish has so many textures and flavors and is so delicious.
The chicken was sautéed in a Persian Spice Mix. Then the squash and onions were sautéed. This was added to the chicken as well as chopped almonds.
While the chicken was cooking, I prepared the rice. After all the water had absorbed, half of the rice was placed on a cooking sheet and baked until dry and crispy. Then all the rice was combined, along with the currants, which had been marinated in lemon juice. I didn't have currants, so used raisins instead.
The dish was topped with yogurt. Delicious!
