Step by step
In a nonstick pot, heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Sauté the chopped onion until transparent, then add the chicken and cook until golden brown, approximately 5 minutes.
Stir in Maggi® Kabsa Mix and raisins. Add 4 cups of hot water and stir until the mix is dissolved.
Add 2 cups of Basmati rice, gently stir, cover, and simmer until tender, approximately 25 minutes.
Serve the Kabsa with yogurt and a side salad. Garnish with fresh parsley.
• Flavor enhancers: Use MAGGI Chicken Stock or Bouillon cubes to boost flavor. Marinate meat in spices, lemon juice, and yogurt for extra tenderness.
• Perfect texture: Measure water and rice accurately. Simmer on low heat without stirring to achieve fluffy, well-cooked rice.
• Creative variations: Try seafood Kabsa with shrimp or fish. Experiment with different spices like turmeric or saffron for unique flavors.
• Serving suggestions: Serve with fresh salad, yogurt, or pickles. A squeeze of lemon juice adds a refreshing burst.
• Substitutes: Use fresh lime zest if dried lime is unavailable. Create your own spice blend with cinnamon, cardamom, black pepper, and cloves if you can't find Kabsa spice mix.
