Ingredients
| Quantity | Ingredient | |

| 2.00 | tablespoon | olive oil |
| ⅓ | cup | blanched whole almonds |
| 1.00 | cup | small-diced onion |
| ½ | cup | small-diced carrot |
| ½ | teaspoon | cinnamon |

Directions
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Lightly oil a 1½-quart oven-proof casserole dish. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil and saute the almonds until they are golden and become fragrant, about 2 minutes.
Add the onions, carrots and cinnamon and stir well, cooking for 3 minutes. Add the rice and cook for 1 minute, stirring to make sure all the kernels are coated with oil. Add the stock, raisins, orange zest and cayenne pepper and bring to a boil. Place the mixture into the casserole dish and bake for 45 minutes. Remove the rice from the oven and place on a large platter. Place the roasted chicken on top of the rice. Garnish with chopped chives. This recipe yields 4 servings.
