Cooking Steps

Prep
1
  • Before starting, wash and dry all produce.
  • Halve carrot coins.
  • Roughly chop parsley. 
  • Peel, then mince or grate garlic.
  • Using a strainer, rinse rice until water runs clear.
Cook chicken and veggies
2
  • Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high.
  • While the pan heats, pat chicken dry with paper towels. Season with salt, pepper and half the Spanish Spice Blend.
  • When hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil, then chicken, carrots and garlic. Cook for 2-3 min, stirring occasionally, until carrots begin to soften and chicken is golden. Season with salt and pepper. (NOTE: Scrape up any brown bits from the bottom of the pan. Chicken will continue cooking in step 3.)
Cook rice
3
  • To the same pan, add chicken stock powder, Smoked Paprika-Garlic Blend, remaining Spanish Spice Blend and 1 1/4 cups (2 1/2 cups) water. Stir, then bring up to a boil.
  • Once boiling, stir in rice, peas and 2 tbsp (4 tbsp) butter, then reduce heat to low. Cover and cook for 18-20 min, until rice is tender, water is absorbed and chicken is cooked through.**(NOTE: While the chicken-rice mixture cooks, get a head start on cleaning!)
Make topping
4
  • Meanwhile, using a rolling pin or heavy-bottomed pot, crush crispy shallots in the package until broken into small crumbs (or finely chop if you prefer.)
Melt cheese
5
  • When the chicken-rice mixture is done, sprinkle cheese over top. Cook , covered for, 3-5 min, until cheese melts.
Finish and serve
6
