Sweet & Savory Sunday - Quick and Easy Chicken and Rice

It's only been a week since our last post but it feels like an eternity. Blogging every other day for a month now has set a steady pace for us which was suddenly interrupted by a series of colds in both families. We've both had a week of tissues all over the place but now that everyone's feeling much better, we return to our blog with a tasty, quick and easy recipe that finds its way to our menu more often than it should.

Here's what you'll need:

cooked chicken legs (or any other part, or a mixture of different parts depending on your preference)
1 cup rice
1 onion
1 carrot
a handful of parsley
3 cups water

olive oil

salt and pepper, or any combination of mixed herbs

 Fry the onion in a pan with some olive oil. Add the carrot, finely chopped or grated.

After a couple of minutes add the rice and stir fry for about a minute or two.

Slowly pour 3 cups of water, add salt and pepper or your preferred seasoning and put the previously cooked meat in the pan. 

Add a handful of chopped parsley.

Cook in a preheated oven for about 30 minutes or until there's no more liquid in the pan.

Quick, easy and incredibly tasty. Enjoy!
