🥘 Ingredients

  • 500g Boneless chicken breast or thighs
  • 1 cup Brown rice (uncooked)
  • 1 cup Mixed vegetables (carrots, peas, green beans)
  • 2 tbsp Fish oil or olive oil
  • 4 cups Water or low-sodium chicken broth
  • Optional Pinch of turmeric (anti-inflammatory)

📝 Instructions

1

Cook the Rice

Rinse the brown rice thoroughly. In a large pot, combine rice with 2 cups of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 20-25 minutes until tender. Set aside.

Cook the Vegetables

Dice carrots into small pieces. Add carrots to the chicken pot and cook for 5 minutes. Add peas and green beans and cook for another 3-4 minutes until all vegetables are tender.

4

Combine & Serve

Mix the cooked rice, chicken, and vegetables together. Add fish oil and turmeric if using. Let cool to room temperature before serving. Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
