Cooking Steps

1
  • Before starting, preheat the broiler to high.
  • Wash and dry all produce.
  • Using a strainer, rinse rice until water runs clear.
  • Peel, then mince or grate garlic.
  • Core, then finely chop jalapeno,removing seeds for less heat. (TIP: We suggest using gloves when prepping jalapeños!)
  • Core, then cute pepper into 1/4-inch slices.
  • Drain, then rough chop olives. Reserve olive brine.
2
  • Heat a medium pot over medium-high. When the pot is hot add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter, rice, half the garlic and jalapeno. Cook for 1 min, stirring often, until fragrant. 
  • Add 1 1/4 cups (2 1/2 cups) water, chicken broth concentrate and 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) salt. Stir. Bring to a boil over high, then reduce heat to low.
    Cover and cook for 13-15 min, until rice is tender and water is absorbed.
    Remove from heat. Set aside, still covered.

  • Pat chicken dry with paper towels. Season with salt and pepper.
  • To a foil-lined baking sheet, add chicken, half the Smoked Paprika-Garlic Spice Blend and 2 tsp (4 tsp) oil. Season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat.
    Broil in the middle of the oven for 10-12 min, flipping once, until cooked through.**

  • Stir in crushed tomatoes, 1/4tsp (1/2 tsp) sugar, olive brine and 1/2 cup (3/4 cup) water. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Reduce heat to medium-low. Cook for 3-5 min, stirring occasionally, until thickened.
