Dissolve ground saffron in 2 tablespoons (30 ml) of boiling water (see How to Use Saffron) and set aside.

Heat the canola oil in a pot over medium heat. Add onion and sauté for 5 minutes. Add garlic and sauté for 1 minute or until fragrant. Increase the heat to medium-high; add chicken and sauté until no longer pink. Then add turmeric powder, bay leaf, water, salt and pepper.
