INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast (cooked, roasted)
1/2 cup Brown Rice (cooked)
1/2 medium Plantain (roasted)
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
2 cloves Garlic
1 teaspoon Dried Thyme
Pinch of Salt
Pinch of Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 350°F for slow-cooking the chicken and to 400°F later for roasting the plantains.
Season the chicken breast with salt, black pepper, dried thyme, and minced garlic. Drizzle with olive oil.
Place the seasoned chicken in a slow cooker with a splash of water or low-sodium broth. Cook on low for 3-4 hours until tender and juicy.
While the chicken is cooking, prepare the brown rice according to package instructions, ensuring it remains fluffy and tender.
Slice the plantain into rounds or diagonal pieces. Toss lightly with a small drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of salt.
Spread the plantain pieces on a baking sheet and roast in the 400°F oven for 15-20 minutes, turning halfway, until the edges caramelize and they are tender.
Once the chicken is cooked, shred or slice it as desired. Plate the chicken alongside a serving of brown rice and roasted plantains.
Finish by drizzling any extra juices from the slow cooker over the chicken for an added burst of flavor.
