Instructions

  1. 1 Heat olive oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add rice, onion, dill, and mint; sauté until onion is soft, about 5 minutes. Pour in 1/2 of the broth, reduce the heat to low, and simmer until rice is almost cooked through, 10 to 15 minutes. Stir in 1/2 of the lemon juice and remove from the heat.
  2. 2 Plunge grape leaves into a deep container of very hot water until soft, about 10 seconds; pat dry.
  3. 3 Place a grape leaf onto a work surface with the shiny side facing down. Place 1 teaspoon rice mixture on leaf at the stem end; fold both sides in toward the center and roll up from the wide bottom to the top. Place stuffed leaf into a 4-quart pot. Repeat to stuff remaining leaves, packing them into the pot tightly so they don't open while cooking.
  4. 4 Drizzle olive oil and remaining lemon juice over leaves, then pour in remaining broth to cover. Cover the pot and simmer for about 1 hour; do not let it boil as the stuffing may burst out of the leaves.
  5. 5 Remove from the heat, uncover, and let cool for 30 minutes. Transfer to a serving dish and serve.

  2. 2 While the rice is cooking, prepare the chicken: Whisk flour, salt, pepper, paprika, and thyme together in a medium bowl. Dredge chicken breasts in flour mixture, turning several times, until well coated. Reserve 2 tablespoons flour mixture for the gravy.
  3. 3 Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook coated chicken in the skillet until golden brown on the outside and the juices run clear, about 10 minutes per side.

Whisk liquid with the pan drippings, scraping any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Cook over medium heat, whisking constantly, until thick and bubbly. Add additional water, 1 tablespoon at a time, if the gravy is too thick.
