  this recipe was wonderful! left out the cinnamon and cheated a bit by using ready chopped ginger and garlic. took longer to cook than the recipe but over all a great recipe, thanks!

  I haven't tried this yet, but definitely will. Reading others' comments, if the rice isn't cooked after the 20 minutes it may be because your pot's lid isn't close-fitting enough. I've made rice in the oven before, and it's meant to cook in the steam. If the lid doesn't fit tightly, like on my ovenproof casserole, try putting a layer of foil on first, then the lid on top.

  This is a nice easy cheap meal especially if you have children, my two and four year old loved it. I added a chopped pepper initially, then when I reheated it the next day I added some raisins which was delicious. So next time I'll be making it with raisins. I always have issues with cooking times from this website, it may be due to my rubbish oven, but even using a cast iron stock pot I needed to add an extra 10 minutes to the cooking time.

  seriously love this dish and make it quite often when dieting as it's quite low in fat and calories. I always leave the nuts out due to taste, but nearly always end up adding more spices and chicken to it. I've cooked in in the hob and in the oven and have to say (personally) I prefer it left on the hob.
