Method

  1. 1

    Heat the oven to 200C (180C fan, gas 6). Crush half the garlic with 1 tablespoon of the baharat and 1 tablespoon of the oil, and rub over the chicken thighs.

  2. 2

    Roast on a tray for 35-40 minutes until deeply golden and cooked through with no pink remaining.

  3. 3

    Meanwhile fry the onion and remaining garlic in the remaining oil in a large pot for 5 minutes, then stir in the remaining baharat and turmeric.

  4. 4

    Rinse the basmati rice and add to the pot with the chicken stock, bring to a simmer, cover and cook over a low heat for 15-18 minutes until the rice is tender.

  5. 5

    Fluff the rice onto a platter and top with the roasted chicken to serve.
