Chicken kabouli

Chicken kabouli, kabuli, or qabooli is a traditional rice dish that is similar to a biryani. It consists of basmati rice that is flavored with an Omani masala blend of whole or ground spices such as cardamom, coriander, cloves, and cinnamon. The aromatic rice is combined with fried onions and pieces of chicken, which are typically boiled with spices and then fried. This dish is often garnished with various ingredients such as sultanas, dates, chickpeas, potatoes, and nuts such as almonds. Chicken kabouli is typically consumed as a main dish for lunch.
