Ingredients
- 10.5 oz (300 g) chicken breast
- 3/4 cup uncooked (5 oz / 140 g) rice
- 1 red bell pepper
- 1 green bell pepper
- 1 yellow bell pepper
- 1 onion
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 tbsp (15 ml) olive oil
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- to taste salt
- to taste black pepper
How to make it, step by step
- Rinse the rice under the tap until the water runs clear and cook it in salted water following the package directions. Drain and set aside.
- While the rice cooks, dice the chicken breast, cut the three bell peppers into strips and slice the onion. Mince the garlic.
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet or wok over high heat and brown the chicken 5-6 minutes, until cooked through. Transfer to a plate.
- In the same skillet, saute the onion and minced garlic 2 minutes, until the onion is translucent.
- Add the three bell pepper strips and saute 4-5 more minutes, stirring occasionally, until tender but still a little crisp.
- Return the chicken to the skillet, add the cooked rice and the soy sauce, and stir-fry everything together for 2 minutes so the flavors blend well.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste and serve hot.
