PERSIAN STYLE CHICKEN AND RICE
This isn't actually a Persian recipe, but it is inspired by Persian dishes i have had in the past.... It's very easy to prepare and its great for summertime, or as a side dish for a nice lamb tagine. Very important - must use real saffron, not imitation! You can use less or more butter if you like, depending on how you like the taste (or how worried you are about the waistline!!!)
