Mediterranean Red Rice

Ankita from Cookpad India gave me this idea and I was very grateful for it! I cooked the peppers and onions down to make a paste/puree with which to flavour my rice. I’m rather pleased with it as it was very tasty 😊

Steps
- 1
Gently cook your red peppers, onions, chilli powder, 1 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp ground pepper. Stir occasionally and let them sweat down for at least 30-40 minutes.
- 2
When the veg is lovely and soft, remove from the heat and blitz in a food processor to form a textured purée. Add it back to the pan and add 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice. Taste it now and add more seasoning or lemon juice if you’d like to.
- 3
Wash the rice then cook it in 500 mls boiling water. Stir once then leave the lid on and simmer for 25-30 mins until tender.
- 4
In a clean frying pan, fry your chicken until it is just cooked. Add 3 tbsp of your flavour purée and let the chicken cook for a few more minutes. Stir in your drained cooked rice and serve with a squeeze of fresh lemon.
