Steps:
- Place chicken, celery, carrot, onion, and bay leaf in a stockpot and cover with water. Set over high heat, add salt, and bring to a simmer. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until the thighs and legs can be pulled easily from the carcass, about 1 hour and 15 minutes. Remove chicken to a bowl, carefully tipping the carcass to drain any broth from the cavity back into the stockpot.
- Let meat sit until it's cool enough to handle, 15 to 20 minutes. Separate skin, bones, and meat. Set aside 2 cups shredded meat (white, dark, or a combination of the two) for rice-a-roni and reserve the rest for another use.
- Transfer skin and bones back to the stockpot with the broth and simmer for 1 to 2 hours or until you need it. Strain.
- Combine oil and butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. When hot and melted, add onion, bell pepper, and salt. Cook and stir until onion just starts to turn translucent, 3 to 4 minutes. Add broken spaghetti and cook until toasted and light golden brown to dark brown in color, about 3 minutes; it's okay if the onions and peppers start to caramelize.
- Add rice and stir until completely coated. Add pepper, oregano, cumin, and saffron. Stir in 3 ½ cups chicken broth. Add cayenne, garbanzo beans, peas, and shredded chicken and return to a simmer.
- Cover tightly with a lid, reduce heat to medium-low, and cook for 15 minutes; do not lift the lid or stir during this time.
- Remove the lid and check the rice in a couple spots. It should be just barely tender. (If it seems undercooked, you can cover and cook for a few more minutes.) Replace the lid, turn off the heat, and let rice sit for 10 minutes.
- Sprinkle parsley and cilantro over top and stir to combine. Check for seasoning and serve immediately.

Tips:
- Prepare the rice and pasta according to the package instructions. Al dente is the ideal texture for both, as it will prevent them from becoming mushy in the casserole.
- Use a flavorful cheese blend. A combination of sharp cheddar, Parmesan, and mozzarella is a classic choice, but you can also experiment with other types of cheese, such as Gruyère, Swiss, or Gouda.
- Add some vegetables. Frozen peas, corn, or broccoli are all great options. You can also use fresh vegetables, but be sure to cook them before adding them to the casserole.
- Don't overcook the casserole. It should be cooked until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the rice and pasta are heated through. Overcooking will make the casserole dry and tough.
- Serve the casserole immediately. It's best enjoyed hot out of the oven.
Conclusion:
Rice-A-Roni casserole is a classic comfort food dish that is easy to make and always a hit with crowds. With its creamy cheese sauce, tender rice and pasta, and flavorful vegetables, it's a dish that everyone will love.
