One-Pot Chicken & Rice I
Sounds really good, I will have to try this one. This recipe is listed using the Uncle Ben's Flavor Infusion Chicken and Herb Rice. For people in Thailand this might be a tough one to get outside of the larger cities, so I will add two more versions of this and will be listed as ...Rice II and ...Rice III.
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 chicken breasts, cubed
- salt and pepper, to taste
- 1/2 cup red onion, diced
- 3 cloves garlic, smashed and minced
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley
- 1 tablespoon butter, optional
- 1 packet Uncle Ben's Flavor Infusion Chicken and Herb
- 3 1/2 cups water
- 1 red bell pepper, diced
- 2 cups tomates, diced
- 1/2 cup frozen peas, thawed and drained
- fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish
Instructions
- Heat the olive oil in a large deep skillet or a medium size pot. When the oil is hot, add the chicken and season with salt and pepper to taste. Cook the chicken for about 2 minutes on each side. Add the onions, garlic, paprika, thyme, parsley, stir and cook 1 additional minute.
- Add the water, butter, and contents of Uncle Ben’s Flavor Infusion Chicken and Herb. Bring to a boil, and then add bell peppers and tomatoes. Lower the heat, cover, and simmer for 10 minutes.
- Remove from heat and mix in the peas. Cover and let rest for about 5 minutes. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley or even diced tomatoes, enjoy.
Notes
For the chicken, this might cost 40 Baht. For the Uncle Ben's Rice I cannot price that yet, I will take a guess at 180 Baht. For 6 servings, this is about $1.10 per serving.
