I took this recipe and used a single chicken breast, and two hind quarters which I trimmed off the bone and took out all the fat and tendons. I seasoned with salt and pepper while I cooked it and then used a 10oz bag of the saffron rice. It was a hit with my wife and the kids wanted more. they are 3 and 2. hardly ever do they want more of anything. the 3 year old wants the leftovers for lunch tomorrow. I will make it again but try different seasonings that go with saffron and see if I can make it really pop.
