I have thought about it a while, debating wheter or not i should put this thread up here but what the hell right??? might as well ... especially after tonight I feel the need to share ... this might help some Cats on a tight budget like i am with some hearty ass meals that dont have shit in um..... So here I am, not the best chef but i can whipp some tasty grub up when i need to and here is Recipe #1
Pinata Chicken and rice
2-3 leeks/green onions
1 red onion
half a green pepper
handful of mushrooms
(depending on how many people or days you wanna feed)
2-3 boneless chicken breasts
garlic powder
basil
recaito (spanish aisle at wallmart easy to find)
sofrito (same as above)
Adoboe ( " " )
about 1-2 cups of rice (also depending on how much you need)
-Start boilng water for the rice season or not as you wish IMO always tastes better wth yellow rice
-First off clean the chicken and filet each in half season each side lightly (meaning just a sprinkle with the adoboe, basil, and garlic powder.
-let the seasoning sit on the chicken while you prepare the pan.
-I usually use pam but however you make sure t doesnt stick do so, let the pan heat up for a few min on high then add the recaito and sofrito to the pan (i usually have home made stuff but using the store bought kind add a bit more basil to the mix let it simmer on the pan and stir it for about 2 minutes.
-chopp the onions, peppers, and mushrooms into bitz and toss them into the pan along with the mix
-Add the chicken on top and frequently lather the mix onto the chicken ensuring it marinates the flavor in..... put a top on it and wait about 25-30 min and your done....
the mix doubles as a sauce for the rice and holds a nice flavor in which the onions bring out more....
Hope anyone who tries ths enjoys it
Peace,
