Arroz con Pollo Cubano

Somehow, the English translation "Cuban Chicken with rice" just doesn't do this exotic dish justice. Serve with salad, garlic bread, and wine, and you'll have a feast. Note that saffron is often less expensive if you purchase it at an oriental or other ethnic specialty market. You can make this dish a day ahead and reheat it. (If you double or triple the recipe, reduce the amount of water).

* Serves 4.
