Note saffron flowers are the actual flowers of the saffron Plant. The stem is the expensive spice it has the same flavor, but cheaper. You have to use more of the flowers but it's so very cheap to buy. You usually can get them in the Latino section in the grocery store.
Serve with the broccoli around the edges, rice in the middle, and chicken and sauce on top.
