   Add the drained basmati rice to the pot and stir to coat the rice with the spice mixture. Pour in the chicken broth, add salt and pepper to taste. Bring to a boil.

7. 7

   Once boiling, reduce heat to low, cover the pot, and simmer for 15 minutes until the rice is partially cooked.

8. 8

   While the rice is cooking, mix the chopped parsley and cilantro with a pinch of salt and pepper. This will be used for stuffing.

9. 9

   Carefully stuff the marinated chicken with the herb mixture. You can secure the opening with toothpicks if needed.

   💡 전문가 팁: Do not overstuff the chicken, as it needs space to cook evenly.

    Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).

11. 11

    Place the stuffed chicken on top of the partially cooked rice in the pot. Ensure the chicken is elevated slightly so it doesn't sit directly in the rice.

    💡 전문가 팁: You can use a rack or place the chicken on a bed of aromatics like onion slices.

    Cover the pot tightly with a lid or aluminum foil. Bake in the preheated oven for about 1 hour to 1 hour 15 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked and the rice is tender.

    ⏱️ 1 hour 15 minutes

    💡 전문가 팁: Check for doneness by piercing the thickest part of the chicken with a knife; juices should run clear.

    Once cooked, let the dish rest for 10 minutes before serving. Fluff the rice gently and serve the stuffed chicken on top.
