Savor the beautifully pan-seared chicken thighs paired with a luxuriously creamy black eyed peas sauce and a side of fluffy brown rice. This dish offers a harmonious blend of savory and comforting flavors that make each bite a delight, perfect for a nourishing and satisfying meal any time of day.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Thigh (skinless, boneless)
1/2 cup cooked Black Eyed Peas
1/2 cup cooked Brown Rice
1 tsp Olive Oil
1/4 medium Yellow Onion, sliced
1 Garlic Clove, minced
2 tbsp Low-Fat or Unsweetened Almond Milk
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Pat the chicken thigh dry and season generously with salt and pepper on both sides.
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken thigh and sear for about 5-6 minutes per side until golden and cooked through; remove and set aside.
In the same pan, add the sliced onions and sauté until translucent, then add the minced garlic and cook until fragrant.
Stir in the black eyed peas along with 2 tablespoons of milk to create a creamy texture, allowing the flavors to meld for about 2 minutes. If needed, add a splash more milk to reach desired creaminess.
Meanwhile, reheat or fluff the pre-cooked brown rice.
Plate the brown rice, top with the creamy black eyed peas, and nestle the pan-seared chicken thigh on top. Garnish with additional pepper if desired and serve warm.
