In a large flameproof casserole, heat the oil. Add the onion and garlic and cook over moderate heat until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the mushrooms and cook, stirring, until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in the ground ginger, salt, and pepper. Add the rice to the casserole and increase the heat to moderately high. Cook, stirring constantly, until the rice is translucent, about 3 minutes. Stir in the chicken broth, wine and 1/2 cup of water. Bring to a boil and stir well. Cover tightly and bake for 10 minutes. Uncover and arrange the chicken pieces on top of the rice. Pour on any remaining marinade and sprinkle with the coriander and orange zest. Cover and bake until the chicken is heated through and the rice is tender, about 10 minutes. serves 6
