Baked Chicken with Rice and Saffron

In Persian cuisine, this is traditionally a peasant dish made with lamb called "tah cheen" — tah means "bottom" and cheen means "to layer," and the dish is essentially layers of rice and meat. The bottom of the pan produces the delicious, flavorful, and crispy layer of rice called tah-deeg, which gives it the look of a golden brown cake.
