According to the culinary service of SaadNews, Saffron Rice with Rolled Stuffed Chicken is one of the delicious and popular Iranian dishes that can be served as a formal dish at parties and gatherings. To prepare this dish, we first prepare the chickens as stuffed rolls. For this, we slice the chicken lengthwise and fill it with desired ingredients. These ingredients can include cooked rice, vegetables, walnuts, raisins, or even dried fruits. After stuffing the chicken, we carefully roll it up and fry it in hot oil until the chicken skin turns golden and crispy.

To make saffron rice, we first cook the rice with water and salt, then sauté the barberries in a bit of oil to give a delicious taste and beautiful color to the rice. Then, we mix the cooked rice with the sautéed barberries to create a tasty and colorful pilaf. The rolled stuffed chicken is placed beside the saffron rice, and finally, we garnish with some pistachios and brewed saffron. This delicious combination full of diverse flavors turns into a great and elegant dish.
