    1. Peel the onion and cut it into rings or dice. 2. Wash and peel the carrots and cut them into medium pieces. 3. Cut the washed chicken into fairly large pieces. 4. Heat a heavy pot or Dutch oven with the vegetable oil until good and hot, add the chicken, and fry until it develops an appetizing golden crust — about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. 5. Add the onion and carrots and fry them with the meat until golden. 6. Add salt, turmeric, whole peppercorns, allspice, and any other spices. 7. Add the rice. Rinse it ahead of time until the water runs clear, let the excess drain, and spread it in a layer over the meat and vegetables. 8. Carefully pour in water so it sits about 3/4 inch (2 cm) above the rice. 9. Wash a whole head of garlic, peel off the loose outer papery skin, and nestle it into the center of the rice. Don't stir. 10. Let the plov cook until the rice is done (15 to 20 minutes). When it's ready, gently fluff it with a wooden spatula. Spoon the finished plov onto plates and garnish with fresh herbs. Serve hot. Enjoy!
