 In a deep pot or dutch oven , sprinkle a few tablespoons
 of rice evenly at the bottom. Transfer the browned
 chicken pieces and sauteed onions to this pot, on top of
 the thin layer of rice.

 In the frying pan, saute the eggplant slices and then
 add them to the deep pot on top of the chicken in an
 even layer.

 Saute cauliflower florets and add as the next layer.

 Cover mixture with rest of the rice, then pour broth
 over the top, and season dish with salt and pepper.

 Cover the pot with its lid, and cook over low heat for
 about 40 minutes.

 Once cooked,allow the dish to cool for 10 minutes before
 opening the lid.

 Place a large serving plate squarely on top of the pot
 and turn the chicken and rice upside down onto the
 serving dish.

 Garnish with toasted pine nuts and freshly-chopped
 cilantro.
