20100830 Mushroom, Chicken, and Rice One-pot

(SOURCE: BBC Easy Cook Magazine)

It was a side dish recipe. But as I was too lazy to cook a main dish, I simply added shredded chicken to make this a main course instead.

INGREDIENTS
1 tbsp olive oil
1 large onion, chopped
1 skinless chicken breast, cooked and shredded
2 red peppers, sliced
1 chilli, chopped
1 tsp dried rosemary
250g mushrooms, quartered
400g can chopped tomatoes
150ml chicken stock
two 250g packs microwaveable instant basmati rice
2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
handful of parsley, chopped

METHOD
1. Heat the oil in a pan, then add the onion and fry for about 5 minutes, until soft. Add the peppers, chilli, rosemary and mushrooms and fry for 2 minutes more.
2. Add the tomatoes and stock, season, then cook for 5 minutes. Stir in the rice and gently heat through. Stir in the balsamic vinegar. Scatter over the parsley and serve.
