INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
1/2 cup cooked Long Grain Rice
1 medium Tomato, diced
1/2 medium Red Bell Pepper, diced
1 small Onion, diced
1 clove Garlic, minced
1 teaspoon minced Ginger
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1/4 cup Low Sodium Chicken Broth
1/2 teaspoon Dried Thyme
1/2 teaspoon Curry Powder
1 Bay Leaf
Salt & Pepper to taste
1 tablespoon Fresh Parsley (garnish)
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 375°F. Season the chicken breast with salt, pepper, and a pinch of dried thyme.
Place the chicken on a baking tray and roast for 20-25 minutes or until thoroughly cooked and juices run clear.
In a medium pan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Sauté the diced onion, minced garlic, and ginger until aromatic.
Add diced tomato and red bell pepper to the pan and cook for 3-4 minutes until they begin to soften.
Stir in the cooked rice, low sodium chicken broth, curry powder, remaining thyme, and the bay leaf. Mix well and let simmer for 5 minutes to marry the flavors.
Slice the roasted chicken and either serve on top of the jollof rice or alongside it.
Garnish with fresh parsley and adjust salt and pepper as needed before serving.
