Tachin translates from Persian as “arranged on the bottom”.[3] Tahchin is composed of two different parts: the thin part which includes the chicken fillets, saffron, and other ingredients at the bottom of the cooking pot, and the second part which is white rice. In restaurants, tahchin is mostly prepared and served without white rice.
