First, soak the rice with salt. Bring a pot of water to a boil, add the rice, and cook until slightly softened. Then drain it and set aside.

In a pan, sauté the chopped onion. Add the chicken pieces and fry until lightly browned. Let it cook in its own juices until tender.

Add the cubed potatoes and sauté lightly. Then add corn and green peas. Separately sauté the mushrooms with a little oil and add them to the pan. Continue stirring.

Preheat the oven. Lightly grease a baking dish. Mix some of the cooked rice with saffron and press it firmly into the bottom of the dish.

Add a layer of the prepared chicken and vegetable mixture, then another layer of rice. Continue layering until all ingredients are used.

Cover the dish with aluminum foil and make a few small holes in it. Bake for about 15–20 minutes.

After baking, let it rest briefly, then carefully invert it onto a serving dish.
