Crispy rice with chicken that is easier to cook than pilaf

Traditional pilaf in a pot or frying pan does not always turn out crumbly. It often looks like porridge. But if you don't have time to stand at the stove for a long time and monitor the consistency, you can cook rice with meat in an oven bag. This way, it will definitely be very crumbly, tender, and flavorful.
