Dish Of The Week: Chicken soltani from Zaferan Cafe

$15.99 • A Persian combination plate, the chicken soltani (a beef version is $18.99) offers a duo of charbroiled kabobs, one koobideh and one barg. The latter is a juicy, lemony-bright skewer of grilled chicken breast pieces; the former features succulent, seasoned ground chicken. The whole plate comes with an enormous side of aromatic basmati rice, enough to stretch across two meals. Zaferan Cafe • 2578 Bengal Blvd., Cottonwood Heights; 801-944-6234 or zaferancafe.com. Open Monday-Thursday, 11 a.m. to 9 p.m.; Friday-Saturday, 11 a.m. to 10 p.m.; and Sunday, 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.
