Instructions

1. 1 Make spice blend: Mix together paprika, black pepper, cumin, coriander, loomi, sumac, cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, green cardamom, and black cardamom in a medium bowl. Set aside.
2. 2 Make chicken and rice: Combine cilantro, 2 tablespoons olive oil, lemon juice, and 1 tablespoon spice blend in a resealable plastic bag. Add chicken thighs, legs, and breast to the bag. Squeeze out excess air, seal the bag, and shake to coat. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours.
3. 3 Meanwhile, place rice in a large bowl, cover with water, and soak for at least 1 hour. Drain and rinse, then return to the bowl. Add cashews, almonds, raisins, and pistachios to rice. Stir in 1 tablespoon spice blend; mix well and set aside.
4. 4 Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
5. 5 Heat 2 teaspoons olive oil in a Dutch oven or tagine over medium heat. Cook and stir shallot in hot oil until translucent, 1 to 3 minutes. Turn off the heat. Stir in rice mixture until well combined.
6. 6 Remove and discard cilantro from the bag with chicken. Pour marinated chicken on top of rice mixture in the Dutch oven; reserve the bag. Pour broth into the bag, shake gently, and pour over chicken and rice. Cover the Dutch oven.
7. 7 Bake in the preheated oven until rice is tender, chicken is no longer pink in the center, and the meat juices run clear, about 75 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of chicken should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
