  • 1 tsp turmeric (For the chicken)
  • 1 tsp paprika (For the chicken)
  • 1 tsp cumin (For the chicken)
  • 0.5 lemon lemon juice (For the chicken)
  • 2 cups basmati rice (For the rice)
  • 1 tbsp olive oil (For the rice)
  • 2 tsp salt (For the rice; stated in the transcript but not quantified in the description)
  • 2 tsp turmeric (For the rice)
  • 1 tsp cinnamon (For the rice)
  • 1 tbsp butter (For the rice)
  • 3 cups chicken stock (For the rice)
  • 1 cup mayonnaise (For the white sauce)
  • 0.5 cup sour cream (For the white sauce)
  • 0.5 lemon lemon juice (For the white sauce)
  • 0.5 tsp salt (For the white sauce)
  • 0.5 tsp black pepper (For the white sauce)
  • 0.5 tsp garlic powder (For the white sauce)

Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the chicken seasoning by combining the chicken thighs with olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, turmeric, paprika, cumin, and the juice of half a lemon.

  2. 2

    Add the basmati rice, olive oil, salt, turmeric, cinnamon, butter, and chicken stock to a rice cooker. Stir to distribute the ingredients evenly.

  3. 3

    Cook the rice in the rice cooker until the rice cooker finishes its cooking cycle and the rice is tender. The source does not specify a cooking time.

  4. 4

    Make the white sauce by combining the mayonnaise, sour cream, juice of half a lemon, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Stir until smooth and evenly mixed.

  5. 5

    Heat a pan over high heat, then add the seasoned chicken thighs.

  6. 6

    Cook the chicken for about 2 to 3 minutes per side. The source does not specify a final internal temperature or additional cooking time, so verify that the chicken is fully cooked before serving.

  7. 7

    Serve the cooked chicken with the rice and white sauce.

Notes

The description provides the ingredient quantities, while the transcript adds salt to the rice and specifies using a rice cooker and cooking the chicken for about 2 to 3 minutes per side. The source does not state a rice-cooker cooking time, chicken thickness, or final chicken doneness temperature; confirm the chicken is fully cooked before serving.
