Ingredients

  • 2 lbs chicken thighs
  • 1 red bell pepper
  • 0.5 medium onion
  • 4 cloves garlic
  • 0.5 cup carrots
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 cup rice

Instructions

  1. Season the chicken thighs on both sides with your favorite seasonings.
  2. Dice all the veggies and mince the garlic.
  3. Sear the chicken thighs for about four minutes on each side or until they develop a nice golden crust. Remove them from the pan.
  4. Add in the veggies, minced garlic and butter. Sauté for a few minutes until fragrant.
  5. Add in the rice. Saute the rice and veggies together for a few minutes.
  6. Add in the chicken broth. Season with chicken bouillon seasoning. Taste and see if you want to add any salt.
  7. Place the chicken right on top of the rice and cover it with a lid for about 20 minutes on medium low heat.

  9. Garnish with cilantro. ENJOY!
