This recipe is for a clever easy to serve, easy-to-eat, bite-sized version of Tachin Persian Chicken and Rice Casserole. We are calling this updated version Persian Crispy Rice Cups, or Tachin Bites. Tachin is Persian food at its finest, combining royal long-grain rice with aromatic turmeric and saffron. It is optionally topped with candied, dried barberries (known as zereshk in Farsi) giving it a sweet and sour twist. Tahchin is easily one of our family favorites as well as an easy go-to weeknight recipe. In Persian cuisine, the crispy bottom of the pot is a delicacy. In Farsi we call this crispy rice tahdigh. Everyone loves tahdigh but it always goes quickly and can be a challenge to share. With Persian Crispy rice cups everyone gets a personal-sized portion of their very own tahdig every time!

I'm certainly no expert on Middle Eastern cuisine; but one thing I am certain of is I can’t get enough of it. The bright, acidic and spice forward flavors filled with varying textures and colors are often just what I’m craving. Plus, I have a penchant for over ordering whenever I go out to eat (Must Try All The Things) so Mezze style eating was pretty much tailor-made for me. You get to try a little of everything; but clearing all the plates is a truly attainable goal (and one that I strive for at all times in life). Now just looking at this recipe may have you running for the nearest Middle Eastern joint in your ‘hood, but fear not! It’s actually much easier than it looks. The keys for success here? MEP (mise en place) all of your ingredients in advance so you can quickly whiz up the different layers in the food processor; all you’ll need is a quick rinse between each batch of flavorful dip. From Game Day to Viewing Parties to Galentine’s Celebrations; this hearty dip has all all your snacking needs covered! Don’t like your foods touching? Serve each component in separate bowls for the mezze board of your dreams! Not expecting a crowd? Just pick one or two of your favorite layers and whip that up as a stand alone dip. Serve it with easy Homemade Za’atar Pita Chips and you’ll never go back to store bought. Recipe and Headnote Molly Adams
