It’s cold outside, and we need something easy so that we can get back to bed. Here is a quick chicken and rice recipe to warm you up from the inside.
What you’ll need:
Chicken pieces
1 cube chicken stock plus 600ml water
Cujan spice
Oil for frying
Onion medium
Crushed garlic
2 tablespoons of white vinegar
1/2 a bell pepper
1/2 a can of tomatoes
Cumin
Paprika
Whole bay leaves
Worcester sauce
Salt and pepper to taste
1 1/2 cups of basmati rice thoroughly rinsed
Let’s cook!
1. Rub the chicken pieces with the Cujan spices, salt and pepper. Brown on medium heat in a non-stick pan.
2. Take out the pieces and fry the onions and garlic with some oil. Add bell pepper once the onions are translucent.
3. Add some vinegar and let it reduce.
4. Add 1/2 a can of tomatoes along with your remaining spices.
5. Now we can add the rinsed rice to the mixture and cook for 5 minutes while constantly stirring.
6. Worcester sauce may be added now, along with the dissolved chicken stock cube.
7. Add the chicken back into the pot and let it cook on low to medium heat for 20 minutes with the lid covered. Please add more water if you can to cover the chicken properly.
Serve warm and stay safe. See you soon.
