INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 cup cooked White Long-Grain Rice
1/2 cup cooked Green Peas
1/4 cup Diced Tomato
1/4 medium Red Onion, diced
1 tsp Olive Oil
Pinch Saffron Threads
1 tsp Ground Cumin
1 tsp Smoked Paprika
1 tsp Garlic Powder
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Pat the chicken breast dry and season generously with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, ground cumin, and smoked paprika.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced red onion and sauté until softened, about 2-3 minutes.
Place the seasoned chicken in the skillet and sear for about 4-5 minutes on each side until it develops a golden-brown crust and is cooked through.
Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside. In the same skillet, add the diced tomato, a pinch of saffron threads, and the cooked rice. Stir well to evenly coat the rice with the tomato and saffron mixture.
Fold in the green peas and heat the mixture through for about 2 minutes. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.
Slice the chicken if desired and serve it atop or beside the tomato-saffron rice, garnishing with additional herbs if available.
