This is one of my favorite recipes that I got from my mom. It's so good. [edit]I've changed the proportions of rice to water so that it'll cook correctly.

I'm not a big fan of chicken. Do you think this recipe would work with another type of meat, like lamb or beef?

I'm allergic to saffron. Do you have any suggestions for a substitute?

I made a few changes to the recipe, like using boneless, skinless chicken breasts and adding some vegetables to the sauce. It turned out great! The chicken was moist and tender, and the sauce was flavorful and colorful.

I followed the recipe exactly and the chicken turned out dry and overcooked. The sauce was also too thin. I'm not sure what went wrong.

I made this recipe last night and it was amazing! The saffron gave the chicken a beautiful golden color and the sauce was so flavorful. I will definitely be making this again.

This saffron chicken recipe was a hit! The chicken was tender and flavorful, and the sauce was delicious. I served it over rice, and it was the perfect meal for a cold winter night.
