Servings: 2
Ingredients:
- 1 cup AGE rice
- 2 boneless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 1 onion, finely chopped
- 1 red bell pepper, sliced
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 cup tomato sauce
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 2 tbsp vinegar
- 1 tbsp honey
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- Salt to taste
- 2 cups chicken broth or water
- Fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions:
- Cook the Chicken: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken pieces and season with salt, pepper, and paprika. Cook for 5-7 minutes until browned on all sides. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
- Sauté the Vegetables: In the same skillet, add chopped onions, red bell pepper, and minced garlic. Cook for 3-4 minutes until softened.
- Prepare the Sauce: Add tomato sauce, soy sauce, vinegar, and honey to the skillet. Stir everything together and let it simmer for 2-3 minutes to allow the flavors to blend.
- Add Rice and Liquid: Stir in the AGE rice, ensuring it is fully coated with the sauce. Add chicken broth or water, bring to a boil, then lower the heat to a simmer.
- Simmer and Cook: Return the cooked chicken to the skillet. Cover and let it simmer for about 20 minutes, or until the rice is cooked and the liquid has absorbed.
- Finish and Serve: Fluff the rice with a fork, garnish with fresh parsley, and serve hot.
