Notes about this recipe

Love the contrast of the tangy yogurt sauce with the savory soft rice and buttery chicken. The only thing that didnt seen accurate was the amount of water needed for the rice to cook. It was definitely more than 2 cups. I used about 3.5.

This was fabulous - followed one note here to add a little chicken broth so I did. I also cooked two breasts in with the thighs. I didn’t get it as nice and pretty as Molly but it was delicious. I used cilantro instead of dill because I had it on hand and it was great. My kids did not touch it ?? I will note that the rice didn’t cook in the allotted time HOWEVER I am pretty sure it’s me and my stove I struggle with rice!

Used brown rice, takes longer to cook

So, so good. Based on another review, I was nervous of it not being flavorful enough. I subbed the water for chicken broth and it was excellent.

This was just okay for us. I think the rice was a bit bland and could have tasted better if I cooked it in broth instead of water. Some of the rice didn't fully cook. I also had snap peas that were a bit woody so that didn't help. I did like the sauce and might try this again.

This recipe was absolutely amazing! I was a little concerned that it might not come together as described, but it turned out perfectly. I followed it almost exactly (only used 1 lb of chicken thighs instead of 2, since I was just cooking for myself and my partner). Molly warns that 1 cup of chopped dill seems like a ton, but it melded into the rice nicely and tasted very balanced. Don't skip the pistachios. I will definitely be making this again!
