Chicken, Spinach Rice Bowl

Fo Fa
Fo Fa @cook_2813029

Wanted to try something different, yet easy. I just sort of thought this up, based off some other recipes i like.
I wanted to use ground chicken, but store bought ground, is usually to fine, and liquid. Plus i wanted to ramp up the flavor a little. It turned out really good. Didn't take too long, and the hardest part is cleaning the food processor!
Now i am wondering if this process would work well with Indian, middle Eastern, Mexican, or any variety of other flavors.

Cooking Instructions

20 minutes
  1. 1

    Skin and bone chicken (i was using skinless boneless thighs)

  2. 2

    Place chicken and vinegar in a bowl, mix. I used apple cider vinegar. Set aside for a few minutes.

  3. 3

    Add onion and garlic to a food processor. Give it a few pulses to chop it coarsely.

  4. 4

    Clean your pepper, rough chop. Add to food processor, pulse a few times to coarse chop. Note - I'm using an Anaheim pepper here.

  5. 5

    Drain chicken, cut into pieces, place in​ food processor, discard vinegar.

  6. 6

    Add meat seasonings

  7. 7

    Pulse until chicken is a mince you like. I wanted something chunky compared to store bought ground meat.

  8. 8

    Clean your spinach, cut into 1-2 inch lengths

  9. 9

    Mix sauce ingredients, set aside

  10. 10

    Heat on medium high, a skillet/wok/stir-fry pan large enough to hold every thing. Put a couple tablespoons oil or spray it.

  11. 11

    Add meat mix, stir until about half cooked, add chopped onion

  12. 12

    When the mixture is just cooked, add the spinach

  13. 13

    Keep stirring until the spinach just wilts

  14. 14

    Give your sauce one last stir, pour in the pan

  15. 15

    Stir and let the sauce come to a bubble, turn heat down to medium low

  16. 16

    Stir and cook until the sauce thickens, 2 minutes give or take depending on how much liquid was present

  17. 17

    Add some rice in a bowl, top with your chicken and spinach mixture

  18. 18

    Garnish with sesame seeds, cilantro, parsley

My wife is disabled, she has M.S. And she finds it hard to cook from her wheelchair. I like a variety of foods, but hate tomatoes, so you don't see too many of my recipes with tomatoes on them. Also both of us have type II diabetes, so high carb and sweet is usually not on the menu either. We have one married daughter, and one that now lives in the Seattle area. We live in Texas, USA with our two dogs.Sorry I have not posted in awhile. Been taking chemo and radiation. and it has taken some out of me. Doctor says it seems to be working, so there is that.
