This one-pot meal is a fusion of two Lebanese classics: riz bi sharieh (rice and vermicelli pilaf) and riz ala’ dajaj (chicken and rice). Toasting the vermicelli is traditional for riz bi sharieh—it brings out nutty, wheaty notes that add complexity to the finished dish. If you have both ground coriander and cumin in your pantry, use 1 tablespoon of each for heightened flavor and aroma. A simple salad with a lemony vinaigrette is the perfect accompaniment.
