Ingredients

Preparation procedure

  • Vegetables: Wash, clean and dice the peppers into small cubes. Finely chop the onion and press the garlic.
  • Base in the pan: Heat the olive oil in a pan, add the onion and sauté until translucent. Add the garlic, fry briefly and add the peppers. Season with salt, cover with a lid and simmer for about 5 minutes.
  • Chicken: Meanwhile, cut the chicken breasts into cubes. Add them to the pan with the vegetables, salt, pepper, season with paprika, cumin and curry. Stir and fry for 5–7 minutes.
  • Sauce: Pour in the tomato paste, mix well and let it simmer briefly under the lid, about 2 minutes.
  • Rice: Thoroughly rinse the long-grain rice and add it to the pan. Stir so it becomes coated in the sauce. Add enough water to cover the rice, and cook covered for about 10–12 minutes, until the rice is tender.

⏱ Total preparation time: approx. 45 minutes

🍽 Number of servings: 5–6
