Boil the chicken and shred it, reserving the broth for the pilaf.
Toast the rice in butter and cook it with chicken broth for 12 minutes.
Mix the chicken, almonds and pistachios into the rice.
Knead a soft dough with the flour, eggs, yogurt and butter.
Line the mold with the dough, fill it with the pilaf and close the top.
Bake at 180°C for 35 to 40 minutes, until the dough is browned.
💡 Tip: Greasing the mold and arranging the nuts helps the curtain pilaf unmold cleanly.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Turn it out, slice it and serve hot with ayran.
