Steps to cook

10 steps · 14 min cook
  1. Prepare the ingredients. Prepare all the ingredients and lay them out on the work surface - we will cook step by step from them 🍛🔥

  2. Cook the rice. Rinse the rice in cold water, put it in a saucepan with twice the amount of water, bring to a boil, then cover with a lid and cook over low heat for about 12-15 minutes, until tender.

  3. Slice the onion and garlic. Slice the onion and garlic into thin slices.

  4. Prepare the chicken. Cut the chicken into larger cubes, season with salt, sprinkle with a little seasoning, and drizzle lightly with oil.

  5. Brown the chicken. Heat the oil in a pan over high heat and sear the chicken quickly on all sides for about 3-4 minutes to seal it.

  6. Saute the onion and garlic. Set the meat aside and saute the onion and garlic in the same pan in butter over medium heat for about 2-3 minutes, until fragrant and slightly softened.

  7. Add the spices and tomato paste. Add the spices and tomato paste and briefly saute over medium heat for about 1 minute.

  8. Add the coconut milk and beans. Pour in the coconut milk, add the beans, and bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat.

  9. Blend the sauce and finish cooking the chicken. Blend the sauce until smooth with an immersion blender, return the chicken to the pan, and simmer over low heat for about 5 more minutes.

  10. Serve. Serve with the cooked rice 🍽️✨
