Melissa d'Arabian is my favorite chef! I have not found a recipe of hers that isn't tasty. This particular recipe is simple yet so flavorful. Great for picnic or dinner!! So glad she is with Food Network.

I made this today sans the chicken and it was fabulous. The flavors meld very well. It was less than $10 because I had most of the items in my pantry

Tried this yesterday; did my shopping the previous day to make sure I had everything. This recipe is a keeper, and definitely will be making it again. I, too, made a one-dish meal, and it was wonderful. Thank you, Melissa, once again.

Man, I am LOVING the recipes from Melissa! Where's she been all my life? She has turned my taste buds upside-down with all of these unexpected flavors. This recipe was no exception. It was so delicious. I look forward to whatever she comes up with next. Bring it, Melissa! No really, please bring it...I can hardly wait to see what's next.

The reason I tried this recipe was not because it's apparently under $10 to prepare (it wasn't, unless you have most of the ingredients already, but because it looked so good. However, it's a little too cold outside right now to include it as a picnic item, so once I prepared all of the layers individually, I mixed everything together into one main dish - and it turned out GREAT! My husband loved it too. This recipe's a definite keeper!

I tried making this for $10. per serving and individual. I found that you must have all ingredients in your kitchen, including left overs. You will not come close. Otherwise, this is good and fun picnic food.

Another hit from Melissa! There are only three of us and my very picky teenage son ate the extra portion. I didn't have tumeric, so I took Melissa's advice and substituted cumin, it was delicious. I don't like green olives or cilantro, so I used spiced pecans and parsley in the rice layer and they worked very well. I also used small bowls instead of jars. I have loved everything I have tried from Melissa. I had made her roast chicken the night before, so the leftovers worked perfectly for this dish. Keep up the great work!

We are having a beautiful Indian Summer in Wisconsin - so more picnics! I made it exactly as the directions indicated and it was GREAT! I too found the jars at a dollar store and had everyone take home their jar so no clean-up required. When the picnic was over, my work was over. Everyone loved the idea so now my only work is to get the recipes printed. Try this one and you will LOVE it.

This recipe takes some time to make, but it is worth it! It's the perfect balance of sweet and salty. I didn't put it into jars--just layered it into a bowl, but I was still able to get the cool layered effect. Highly recommended!
