This is perfect to serve to a large crowd. It’s a complete meal it itself because it has chicken and rice on it. You don’t have to hassle yourself with other complicated dish. This is something that everyone will love because it’s something that feels comforting to eat. It’s a classic rice recipe that one of my aunts often make when we’re together.
