Chicken and Rice with Meat

By: KELLYJEANNE

"An everyday dish of Middle Eastern origin, simple to make, with a slightly exotic flavor. It isn't fancy, but my family loves it. My husband's father used to make it."

Original Recipe Yield 4 servings

Ingredients

1 tablespoon butter
1/2 pound ground beef
1 teaspoon allspice
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
2 3/4 cups hot water
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1/2 pound skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
1 cup uncooked basmati rice
1/2 cup pine nuts

Directions

Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat, and cook the ground beef until evenly brown. Season with allspice, cinnamon, and pepper, and continue cooking 1 minute. Pour in the hot water, season with salt, and place the chicken in the skillet. Cover, and cook 25 minutes, until chicken juices run clear.
Remove chicken from skillet, and shred. Return to skillet, and mix in the rice. Cover, and continue cooking 20 minutes, until rice is tender, and liquid has been absorbed.
In a separate skillet over medium heat, cook and stir the pine nuts 5 minutes, or until lightly browned. Sprinkle pine nuts over the beef, chicken, and rice mixture to serve.
