Preheat oven to 500° F, or the highest possible heat under 500° that your oven will reach.
Add all of the ingredients to a large pot except for the rice. Add just enough water to cover everything, and cook at high heat until water gets low and the mixture becomes a thick sauce. Remove from heat, cover and set aside.
After the sauce is ready and set aside, add salt, water, and rice to a separate pot and bring to a boil, then pour in the rice. Boil rice until it’s 3/4ths of the way cooked, about 5 minutes. Strain excess water using a colander.
Spread 3/4ths of the rice into a large baking dish. Add chicken and sauce on top evenly, covering as much of the rice as possible. Spread the remaining rice over this and cover with foil. Place in the pre-heated oven and bake for 20 minutes.
Remove the dish from the oven and set aside to cool. After 10 mins, lift the foil and drain the accumulated moisture from the foil cover onto a paper towel or into the sink. Plump rice with a fork (only once) and put the foil back on. Drain the moisture again every 10 minutes twice more, then serve.
