Please remove this recipe from your archive. I used beautiful, organic ingredients and the rice was hard as a rock, chicken dry as a bone - really inedible. Learn from my mistake.

I just made this. There is a lot of liquid left in the dish. What was I supposed to do with the cup of water? Was I supposed to cook the rice first?
