- Reduce the heat to a simmer and cover the pot. Allow it to simmer for about 30 - 45 minutes, checking regularly to ensure it doesn't burn at the bottom.
- Adjust the cooking time as needed, depending on the type of rice used.
- After the rice is cooked and the liquid is absorbed, add the cooked chicken back to the pot and mix well.
- Garnish the dish with parsley.
