Recipe:
Ingredients
– 150g boneless chicken (cut into small cubes)
– 1 cup of Basmati rice
– 1 large onion (finely chopped)
– 1 green bell pepper (diced)
– 2 cloves garlic (finely chopped)
– Salt to taste
– 2-3 tbsps of oil
– 1 tsp of soya sauce
– 1 tsp of vinegar
– A pinch of pepper
– Spring onions for garnishing
Instructions:
1. Rinse the rice in cold water until the water runs clear. Cook the rice until it is tender and set aside.
2. Heat oil in a large wok or skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken pieces and season with salt and pepper. Stir-fry until they are nicely browned – around 7-8 minutes. Remove the chicken and keep aside.
3. In the same pan, add a little more oil if needed, then add the chopped onions and garlic. Sauté until they become translucent.
4. Add the bell pepper to the pan and continue stir-frying until it becomes tender.
5. Now, add the cooked chicken back into the pan. Sprinkle soya sauce and vinegar and give it a good toss ensuring that the chicken and vegetables are well coated.
6. Finally, add the cooked rice to the chicken and vegetables, mix well until everything is combined. Adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper if necessary.
7. Garnish with finely chopped spring onions.
