Make Chicken and Potato Rice
Recipe Name: Chicken and Potato Rice
Ingredients:
- 1 cup of rice
- 2 chicken breasts, boneless and skinless
- 2 medium-sized potatoes, peeled and diced
- 1 onion, finely chopped
- 3 cloves of garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon of ginger, grated
- 1 teaspoon of turmeric powder
- 1 teaspoon of cumin powder
- 1 teaspoon of paprika
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil
- 2 cups of chicken broth
- Fresh cilantro or parsley for garnish (optional)
Step-by-Step Guide:
1. Rinse the rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Drain and set aside.
2. In a large skillet or pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent.
3. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger to the skillet and cook for another minute until fragrant.
4. Cut the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces and add them to the skillet. Cook until the chicken is browned on all sides.
5. Add the diced potatoes to the skillet and sauté for a few minutes until they start to soften.
6. In a small bowl, mix together the turmeric powder, cumin powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Sprinkle this spice mixture over the chicken and potatoes, stirring well to coat everything evenly.
7. Add the rinsed rice to the skillet and stir to combine with the chicken and potatoes.
8. Pour in the chicken broth and bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, cover the skillet, and let it simmer for about 15-20 minutes or until the rice is cooked and the liquid is absorbed.
9. Once the rice is cooked, remove the skillet from the heat and let it sit, covered, for an additional 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
