My PERFECT One-Pot Dinner | Persian Chicken Rice Pilaf | Marion’s Kitchen

[@davidjma7226]

I live in Oman, an Aussie with a Persian wife who doesn't cook. I do and cook Persian food after spending 2 yrs in Iran. I shall definitely try this out! Thanks.

[@stever456]

Oh my, and this is why the world should just get on together. All amazing foods everywhere!

[@PropertyGuru-pp6on]

Hi Marion! Big fan :) Keen to try this! Small tip: when we use Saffron in any dish, particularly Biryani (which has Middle Eastern roots too) we usually bloom it with Milk and not water, that way you can put the entire thing into the rice. We also soak the rice in water for 10-15mins just to bloom the rice too!

[@SilentTrip]

I'm a middle Eastern too and we never do what you say lmao, maybe that's particular for your region

[@aloras405]

Hi Marion. I am, from Colorado in the US. Tonight I made a roast spatchcock chicken with green beans and mashed potatoes and scratch made gravy. It was incredible. This looks delicious too.

[@brandoncarpenter9681]

Nothing beats an oven baked chicken. Way better than the rotisserie from king Soopers.

[@Marionskitchen]

YUMMMM! Homemade roast chicken is always the best!

[@hectorgomez2058]

I cook professionally for a living and have for the last 40 years never going to culinary school self-taught and I make a pretty good living at it. And another thing that I enjoy watching your videos I like to Asian styles I like the classic if I ever get bored with my own food, I watch your videos and there’s two other people that I watched on her on a daily basis but thank you for all your great tips great tasting food truly a fan …. Hector.

Hi Marion! I'm watching from pembrokeshire West Wales, in the uk. I LOVE your long form videos and watch you while I'm cooking dinner, not necessarily what you are cooking but i love watching you when i cook. Because of you, Ive started growing my own coriander just so i can use the roots!😂

[@dilaniarendtsz6295]

Hi Marion, I’m from Sri Lanka, a huge fan of yours. Watching you on my way to work. I will definitely make this easy weeknight dinner. Thank you for the awesome recipes.

[@gsmith8098]

Hey Marion, Did this for dinner tonight with a couple of changes (didn't have some ingredients). Used hummus instead of yogurt, mint instead of dill, cranberries instead of pomegranate and onion instead of shallots. Worked out really good 👍 Thank you 😁

[@jcf2322]

Love that you are using whole spices. I'm in the midst of transitioning from ground species to whole, as you get better flavor. Rice pilaf is definitely an easy weekend meal. I usually broil my chicken separately, but I like the idea of just doing it all in the same pot.

[@thithonguyen886]

Hi, i am from Vietnam, i have watched your videos for the last 2 or 3 years, i really enjoy watching your videos, i think mainly because your energy and the passionate and funny way you talk about the dishes that you cook.

[@aliceadler4569]

I make pilaf with chopped carrots, bell peppers (green ones) & onions & jasmine rice. My father in law taught me to make rice when I was 19 & I have always made it the Thai way using my thumb to measure water!!!!

[@amberican927]

Hello there!! I've watched your channel for years and I just have to say there is something so relaxing and calm about your accent and voice. (I'm from the US) Thank you for breaking down your recipes into easy to follow steps and the extra tips! I have a request for more deep frying recipes and maybe with oil options that aren't vegetable/peanut/canola. ❤❤

[@Marionskitchen]

Oh thank you so much for watching and commenting! I will certainly consider that suggestion for future episodes!

[@ChrisMarrin]

Hey Marion, watching from Rotterdam the Netherlands. Just wanted to say thay I always cook chicken thighs your way (with the corn starch and marionade, then wok in oil till its crispy, then cook the rest with added hot water). It is always amazing. Love your asian cooking style.

[@nethmal7524]

I am from Sri Lanka, rice and fried rice nothing is better than that 🥰🥰🍛🍛 I really love your explanation and the way you speaking ❤ thank you for giving us a really good recipes, I always love to try and I tried your couple of dishes those are really amazing ❤❤

[@melaniepowell9595]

I live in Staffordshire in the UK and I'm so glad I found you. I have tried several of your recipes (and your mum's) so far and they are all yummy, thank you for the inspiration ❤️

[@sutapa_d]

Hi Marion, love every dish you make. You inspire me to make different dishes. Being an Indian, I don’t make curry every day. We are a foodie family, so I make different dishes every day. Cooking is my passion, so while looking for recipes, I found you. Love your style, “Thigh girl” 😁😁

[@EyeRedDr]

Well, seeing that you asked. I took advantage of your Pad Thai pack from Woolies. I fried up some fresh prawns, shallots, garlic & ginger to go with your pack and the fam loved it.

[@palomahealing5073]

My favorite Rice Pilaf is with chopped onions, small diced carrots & almond slices!!👌

Hi Marion, watching the video from Honolulu, Hawaii. This Persian rice pilaf dish looks quite delicious and giving me ideas for dinner tonite. I've made many a dishes from your videos and they all come out great & delicious. Thank you for all the wonderful recipes!🙂😋🧡

Hi Marion, Watching from Northern Ireland and definitely making Persian Chicken for dinner.. Thankyou for your recipes..

[@madhavimenon2246]

Hi Marion. I'm from India . Yesterday , I cooked your noodle dish with chicken . It was so simple and flavourful. Will try the chicken pilaf now

[@mosaidulhuq]

Hi Marion! I am watching from Canada. Dishes like these are perfect for a working professional like myself as I am always running out of ideas on making dinner dishes during the week that don't take a lot of time and ones that you can also take to work for lunch the following day or two. Lately, my go to has been making express ramen using Indomie noodles and the ramen recipe straight from the Indomie website, with my spin on it of course! A fan since 2020 and largely due to your videos I have become an avid food geek. Never stop cooking!

[@ladypenelope2727]

Made this tonight and a massive crowd pleaser. Perfect bowl food for fire pot night. Thank you for your brilliance. Greetings from Western Sydney. 🇦🇺

[@SilentTrip]

I just cooked this recipe, it tastes absolutely AMAZING 👏 like WOW!! the most delicious rice and chicken I've ever cooked!

[@joumana1275]

Made this tonight and it was so easy and delicious! Definitely looked more impressive than the effort required. Will be adding this one to the repertoire of quick and easy menus

I made an Asian style cucumber salad with springy cut cucumbers in a soy based sauce, with garlic, chili sauce, and other things 😊

[@BIL-T]

Love this! I'm Pakistani but with distant Iranian heritage (well, 3%, but who's counting?), so it's cool to see Middle Eastern food get a bit of representation, just like when you made biryani that was also amazing Keep up the good work always!!!

[@spiroubobine5156]

Hi Marion ! Merci pour toutes ces délicieuses recettes. Je ne me lasse pas de regarder tes vidéos qui sont très bien conçues, instructives, variées et détaillées.

If your making stock on the weekend, make more and freeze. I make it in my Instant Pot, 4 hours. Then i freeze in 500mL pasta sauce jars. It's quite concentrated.

Hi, Marion. I'm from Finland and stumbled upon your channel looking for inspiration for a vegan pilaf and the persian touch seemed very intriguing. OC i'll use vegan "chicken" and vegetable stock, but this is the recipe I'll be taking my inspiration from tonight ❤

[@sljt8d2g7nfp4ua6ey]

Glad to know you have a new series once a week. I'll be looking forward to seeing them 👌👍.

[@benyaminjameie]

I am Iranian and this recipe is mouthwatering. I am definitely going to try it tonight. Btw I would love to recommend you to try Fesenjān as I see you are also a fan of pomegranate molasses. it is one my go to Iranian dishes on a weekly basis. I prefer it sweet and sour a good mixture of both world. Some part of iran cook it sour and some part cook sweet and in tehran most people at least those who I know prefer it sweet and sour.

[@jeanniebrooks]

This looks so delicious! I’m definitely trying this. I like most anything that has dill and pomegranate. Thanks Marion!

[@jenniferloats2091]

I have a Persian recipe not quite the same as yours but yummy also. This reminded me to dig it out and use it again

[@david_from_oz]

Hi Marion! This is so so so good. It is so packed with flavours. Such a simple, quick and easy recipe. It's very convenient when guests are over because it's quick and doesn't need to be minded. Could you do Middle-Eastern/Persian/Afghan recipes with Marion's twist (something like Marion x OTK)?

[@hakhamortezaie1695]

Hi Marion. I’m a huge fan and keen to try this Marion creation to see how it tastes. Two things though: 1) We Persians are also Asian 😅; 2) We would never make rice like this 😉.

Well then dont make it like that 👍

@@greyhatdonerelax mate, he just meant its not authentic

[@airliners6430]

I love Marion too, and can also attest to #2. Not happening, lol Rice isn’t the place to “cut a corner” to speed up Persian food. It's a pretty dish, though.

[@Stampingerms]

I agree with you, it okay for tonight’s dinner though!!

@@greyhatdonebit triggered there Cletus. It’s not your culture so why you being so ridiculously salty about it? Guaranteed if someone was making your food different you’d have something to say about it.

[@AndrewPhilpot3280]

I blitz whatever veggies I have (the cheaper the better) so that they are about the same size as the rice grains, cook them until slightly caramelized then add rice. Finish with sumac and/or cumin and coriander powder. Perfect side to many dishes.

Hi, watching from Georgia, USA. Looks delicious!

[@Marionskitchen]

If you can get tamarind paste, that is a good substitute because it has a similar sour flavour. But you'll need to add 2 tsp sugar per 1/4 cup of tamarind to give it some sweetness, and also simmer it with a couple of tablespoons of water to give it a syrup consistency.
