How to make it

  1. Rinse the rice and dice the vegetables.
  2. Sauté the onion and chicken in the oil for 5–6 minutes; add the carrot, pepper and peas.
  3. Add the rice and the liquid. Simmer, covered, for 15–18 minutes, or as directed for your variety of rice.
  4. Check that the chicken has reached 74°C and the rice is fully cooked.
  5. If you cook it the evening before, cool the rice quickly in small portions and refrigerate it. In the morning, reheat it only once, to 74°C, and put it straight into a hot food flask.
