SERRESH POLLO (PERSIAN CHICKEN AND RICE WITH FRIED ONIONS, RAISI



Serresh Pollo (Persian Chicken and Rice With Fried Onions, Raisi image

This was my introduction to persian cuisine. My DH's first wife is Iranian, and she taught him Persian cooking. He can make several awesome dishes, but this was the first he made after moving i with me, and it still is one of my favourites. It's easy and quick to make, too. Barberries are available in oriental groceries. They are very tart and balance the sweet raisins perfectly. It's not exactly calorie friendly, but worth every bite. Serve with green salad.

PERSIAN STYLE CHICKEN AND RICE



Persian Style Chicken and Rice image

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!!!)

This is a Peruvian rice and chicken dish made with cilantro and a special Peruvian kick. It's very delicious, my Peruvian father-in-law said that mine was even better then his sister's - who is one of the best cooks in the family (besides my mother-in-law)! Goes great with Huancaina sauce and salsa Criolla.

Time 1h35m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 skinless, boneless chicken breasts, cut in half
salt and ground black pepper to taste
½ cup vegetable oil, divided, or as needed
½ red onion, diced
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 ½ bunches cilantro leaves, lightly chopped
1 tablespoon aji amarillo chile paste
½ cup chicken broth
1 red bell pepper, diced
2 ½ cups water, or more as needed
2 cups uncooked white rice
1 (10 ounce) package frozen peas and carrots

Steps:

  • Season chicken with salt and pepper.
  • Heat a large saucepan over medium-high heat with enough oil to coat the bottom. Brown chicken in the hot oil on all sides, 5 to 7 minutes total. Remove chicken onto a plate.
  • Pour more oil into the pan and add onion; saute until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and saute, 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in cilantro, chile paste, salt, and pepper and saute until cilantro turns dark green, 3 to 5 minutes. Pour in chicken broth and deglaze, scraping the browned bits off the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. Bring to a light simmer; let simmer for 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Transfer mixture carefully to an electric blender and puree.
  • Heat more oil in the same pan over medium-high heat; saute bell pepper until soft, about 5 minutes. Return cilantro mixture to the pan and add chicken. Cover, reduce heat to low, and cook until chicken is no longer pink in the center and juices run clear, 20 to 30 minutes.
  • Remove chicken from the pan. Add water and rice, adding more water if it doesn't look like enough. Bring to a boil; place a lid on the pan, reduce heat to low, and cook until all liquid is absorbed and rice is tender, 20 to 40 minutes. Stir in peas and carrots and chicken and warm through, 5 to 10 minutes.

Time 45m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 (3 1/2) pound chicken, cut into 8 pieces
Goya Adobo with Pepper, to taste
3 tablespoons Goya Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 cup yellow onion, finely chopped
¾ cup green bell pepper, finely chopped
1 ½ teaspoons Goya Minced Garlic
1 ½ cups Canilla Extra Long Grain Rice
1 packet Goya Powdered Chicken Bouillon
1 packet Sazon Goya with Azafran
¼ cup Goya Pitted Alcaparrado, sliced
1 (4 ounce) jar Goya Fancy Sliced Pimientos
½ cup Goya Frozen Peas, thawed

Steps:

  • Using paper towels, pat chicken dry. Season chicken with Adobo. Heat oil in caldero, or large heavy pot over medium heat. Cook chicken, in batches, until brown on all sides, 7-10 minutes; set aside.
  • Stir onions, peppers and garlic into pot; cook until soft, about 5 minutes. Add rice, bouillon and Sazon to pot; cook, stirring constantly, until rice is completely coated in oil mixture, about 1 minute.
  • Stir in 3 cups water; bring to a boil. Add alcaparrado and chicken (skin-side up) to pot. Cover pot, reduce heat to low and simmer until water is absorbed, rice is tender and chicken is cooked through, about 25 minutes.
  • To serve, using fork, fluff rice; garnish with pimiento strips and peas.

Tips:

  • To ensure the chicken is cooked thoroughly, use a meat thermometer to check that the internal temperature has reached 165°F (74°C) before serving.
  • For a crispier chicken, fry it in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan, which can cause the chicken to steam instead of fry.
  • If you don't have saffron, you can substitute it with turmeric powder. Just add a pinch of turmeric powder to the rice while cooking.
  • To make the fried onions, use a mandoline slicer to thinly slice the onions. This will help them cook evenly and crispy.
  • If you don't have a mandoline slicer, you can also use a sharp knife to thinly slice the onions. Just be careful not to cut yourself.
  • To prevent the fried onions from burning, keep a close eye on them while they are frying. Stir them frequently to ensure they cook evenly.

Conclusion:

Serresh Polo is a delicious and flavorful Persian dish that is perfect for a special occasion meal. The combination of crispy chicken, fluffy rice, and tangy fried onions is sure to please everyone at the table. With a little planning and preparation, you can easily make this dish at home.
