3 pods black cardamom
1 cinnamon stick
1 medium red onion
1 (3 1/2) pound chicken, split in half lengthwise
1 teaspoon dried cilantro
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
½ teaspoon salt
2 cups long grain white rice
3 cups milk

Instructions

Step 1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Step 2
Place the chicken, cardamom pods, cinnamon, and whole red onion into a large Dutch oven. Fill with enough water to cover the chicken, and bring to a boil over medium-high heat; boil for 20 minutes. Reserve 4 cups of the resulting chicken stock in a large saucepan.

Step 3
Remove the chicken and onion from the Dutch oven and place in a roasting pan. Season the chicken with the dried cilantro, black pepper, and salt; cover with aluminum foil.

Step 4
Bake the chicken in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, then remove the foil and continue baking until the chicken becomes golden brown.

Step 5
Meanwhile, pour the rice in with the reserved chicken stock. Bring the rice to a boil over high heat, stirring occasionally. once it reaches a boil, cover the saucepan and reduce the heat to low, simmer covered for 15 minutes. Stir the milk into the rice and bring the heat back up to medium-low; cook uncovered until no liquid remains. Serve the rice topped with the chicken and onion.
