Before we begin a disclosure: When I cook, I don’t follow recipes, I don’t measure and quite often, I don’t even know what I’m going to cook until I’m done, so follow with caution!
Mum and Dad bought us a Dream Pot for our travels so last night, I thought I’d try it out. I ended up making Moroccan Chicken. You can see the video here:
Ingredients
- 1 Packet of Paprika coated chicken from Woolworths
- 1 Onion
- 1 Carrot
- 1ish Capsicum
- A sprinkling or 2 of Moroccan Seasoning
- 1 tin of diced tomatoes
- 1 chicken stock cube
- 1 dollop of minced garlic
- Whatever amount of frozen vegies you have left in the freezer
- 200ml Rice
- 300ml Water
- Splash of Olive Oil
Method:
- Heat the inner pot of the Dream Pot and add a splash of Olive Oil
- Add chicken pieces and turn to brown slightly
- Add onion, carrot, capsicum and stir
- Add diced tomatoes, stock cube (with water), minced garlic and frozen vegies
- Bring to the boil
- Boil for at least 10 minutes, stirring occasionally
- Bring the rice and water to a boil for 1 minute (I’d do more than a minute and next time I would add extra water too)
- Put the chicken inner pot into the Dream Pot, followed by the rice, and quickly seal
- Leave unopened for up to 8 hours (I think ours was about 7 hours)
- When you are ready to eat, open Dream Pot and server
- Alternatively, if you have rice that is a bit hard, you can attempt to add more water and boil for a bit longer. Warning- you may end up with gluggy rice. Maybe just get the rice hotter with more water at the start
I must admit, I’m not a big fan of stew-type meals but this meal had a lot of flavour and was very tasty. I would call it a success! As long as you cover the gluggy rice with lots of flavoursome sauce, you’ll be fine.
