Pilaf with chicken meat is less fatty, although the word "dietary" still cannot be applied to it. Chicken is ready faster than lamb and beef - the whole pilaf will take less than two hours. What is important is that it is tasty and filling.

Prepare all the ingredients.

2
Cut the chicken into thighs, drumsticks, wings, and breasts, and cut the breasts into large pieces.
Required ingredients:
1. Chicken: 1 piece

3
Heat vegetable oil well in a pot and fry the chicken until golden brown. It's better to fry the meat in parts; otherwise, the chicken will stew instead of frying. Place the fried chicken on a clean plate.

1. Chicken: 1 piece
2. Vegetable oil: 300 ml

4
Cut the onion and carrot into strips.

Fry the onion until translucent, then add the carrot and fry for another 2-3 minutes.

1. Chicken: 1 piece
2. Garlic: 1 head
3. Cumin (zira): 1 teaspoon

7
Rinse the rice thoroughly under running water. Then fry it in a dry pan over low heat, stirring constantly. This will take 7-10 minutes.

Then transfer the rice to the kazan, cover with a lid, and let it sit for 30 minutes.

After 30 minutes, you can stir the rice a little and check its readiness. If the rice is not ready yet and the water has evaporated, make a few holes in the pilaf, pour about half a glass of water into them, and keep it covered for another 5-10 minutes.

Serve the pilaf with chicken hot.
