Kabsa is the Arabian Peninsula's rice centerpiece: chicken simmered with kabse spices, the broth then raising turmeric-golden rice studded with peppers, carrots, corn, mushrooms and raisins. Everything cooks into one fragrant, festive platter built for sharing. The raisins' sweetness against the spice is the signature move.
