Make this Chicken using the ingredients below and following the preparation instructions.

Ingredients

  • 1 kg chicken (cut into pieces)

  • 2 cups of rice

  • 1 chopped onion

  • 3 cloves of garlic, chopped

  • 2 chopped tomatoes

  • 1 chopped green pepper

  • 1 carrot cut into slices

  • 1 can of peas (optional)

  • 2 tablespoons of oil or olive oil

  • 4 cups of chicken broth

  • Salt and pepper to taste

  • Chopped parsley and chives for garnish

Directions

  • In a large pan, heat the oil or olive oil over medium heat. 
    Add the onion and garlic, sautéing until they are golden.
  • Add the chicken cut into pieces and season with salt and pepper to taste. 
    Cook until the chicken is browned on all sides.
  • Add the tomatoes, peppers and carrots to the pan. 
    Sauté for a few minutes until the vegetables are lightly cooked.
  • Add the rice to the pan and stir well so that it absorbs the flavors of the chicken and vegetables.
  • Pour the chicken broth into the pan. 
    If you prefer, you can replace part of the broth with water. 
    Mix everything and let it boil.
  • Reduce the heat to medium-low, cover the pan and simmer for about 15 to 20 minutes, or until the rice is cooked and the liquid has been absorbed.
  • If using, add the peas to the pan in the last 5 minutes of cooking.
  • Check seasoning and adjust as needed. 
    Add more salt and pepper if desired.
  • Serve the chicken hot, garnished with chopped parsley and chives.
