AMAZING CINNAMON APPLE RICE STUFFED CHICKEN GFCF
This is a different take on a traditional Persian dish that I love. My sister, Naomi and I came up with the recipe together. We were trying to use ingredients that would not only taste great for kids and adults alike but also follow a gluten free casein free diet for her son with Autism. When she served this for dinner to her husband, who is very picky, he exclaimed, "Wow,Amazing! You have to make this for Christmas dinner. The entire chicken disappeared very quickly and he was disappointed that she had not made two!

Tips:
- Use the right type of rice. Different types of rice have different cooking times and textures. For example, long-grain rice is a good choice for dishes like pilaf and fried rice, while short-grain rice is better for sushi and risotto.
- Rinse the rice before cooking. This helps to remove starch and impurities, resulting in fluffier rice.
- Use the right amount of water. The general rule is to use 1½ cups of water for every cup of rice.
- Bring the water to a boil before adding the rice. This helps to prevent the rice from sticking to the bottom of the pot.
- Reduce the heat to low and cover the pot. Cook the rice for the recommended time, or until all the water has been absorbed.
- Let the rice rest for 5 minutes before serving. This allows the rice to finish cooking and absorb any remaining moisture.
- Fluff the rice with a fork before serving. This helps to separate the grains and make the rice light and fluffy.
Conclusion:
With a little practice, you can cook perfect rice every time. Be sure to experiment with different types of rice and recipes to find your favorites. And don't forget to enjoy the delicious results!
