Arabic Chicken Curry with Noodle Rice

This Arabic Chicken Curry recipe is so delicious and the perfect recipe for those who love flavour but not chilli. It's child-friendly and quick & easy to cook when entertaining.
The noodle rice is a classic Arabic rice that can be eaten with anything. I use chicken stock or a stock cube for added softness and flavour. My kids love this classic Arabic rice even by itself with some natural yoghurt. I only used powdered spices and avoided seeds because my children prefer it that way.
