I removed the oil and cooked the onions in a spritz of cooking spray instead. I rubbed the chicken in a pasted of turmeric, cinnamon, the bay leaf, garlic and saffron (with a bit of water) for 20 minutes and then followed your directions, just subbing in fat free veggie broth for the water. It's absolutely delicious!
