Today I wanted to spice up the same ingredients I always have on hand: chicken and rice. So I was pleasantly surprised by the mix of these 2 flavors and really enjoyed the new meal with a side of steamed broccoli.
Craisin Rice
Ingredients:
2 tbsps. olive oil
3 cups cooked white rice
1 cup craisins
1 onion, chopped
1 tbsp. ground turmeric
salt to taste
pepper to taste
Directions:
1. In a skillet, heat two tablespoons of olive oil. When oil is hot, saute the chopped onion. Add turmeric and craisins. Add cooked rice salt. Mix well. Salt and pepper to your liking.
Cilantro-Lime Chicken
Ingredients:
3 tbsps. olive oil
4 boneless chicken breast halves, cut into bite-sized pieces
2 cloves garlic
2 tbsp. lime juice
1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro
salt and pepper to taste
Directions:
1. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Fry chicken pieces in the hot oil until browned on all sides. Add the garlic, and continue to cook until the chicken is no longer pink in the middle. Stir in the cilantro and lime juice, and season with salt and pepper. Cook just until heated through. Serve with the rice.
Buen Provecho!
