One Pot Chicken & Rice- here’s episode 7 of Easy Recipes My Whole Family Loves. I experimented with this recipe for a while because I instantly loved the flavour of it, but couldn’t get the textures right. IMO, these measurements and timing works best so your broccoli isn’t completely mush (I love a crunch and don’t want everything to be the same texture), chicken is still tender, and rice is soaked in flavour but still also has texture. Ingredients; *6 boneless skin on, chicken thighs, dried *1 tsp smoked paprika *1/2 tsp garlic powder *1/2 tsp cumin *1 tsp salt *1.5 tsp black pepper *1 head of broccoli, washed and chopped *2 cups (western measuring cup) of Jasmine (or long grain) rice *4 shallots, minced *4 garlic cloves, minced *1.5 tbsp of grated ginger *2 + 2/3 cups (western measuring cup) of chicken bone broth or chicken stock (for every cup of rice us 1 + 1/3 cup of liquid *needs to be exact*) *2 tbsp cooking oil *spring onion, sliced (optional; for garnish) *sesame seeds (optional; for garnish) sauce (optional but do it!): *1.5 tbsp oyster sauce (or vegetarian oyster sauce- if you don’t have this you can put an extra tsp of dark soy sauce and a bit more sugar) *1.5 tsp dark soy sauce (or tamari soy sauce) *Kikkoman brand has gluten-free *1.5 tsp of light soy sauce (or coconut aminos) *1.5 tsp sugar Method below in comments
