Lemony Chicken & Rice
Lemony Chicken & Rice
- 1 small onion, peeled and finely chopped
- 1 1/2 tsp vegetable oil
- 2 small cloves garlic, peeled and minced
- 1/4 tsp dried oregano
- 1 (250g) pouch already cooked long grain rice (2 cups)
- 4 boneless skinless chicken thighs (small to medium in size), trimmed and any fat discarded
- 60g fresh baby spinach leaves (2 cups)
- 85g crumbled feta cheese (3 ounces)
- 60ml single cream (1/4 cup half and half)
- 1 tsp freshly grated lemon zest
- 1 TBS fresh lemon juice
- fine sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
- Place the onion, garlic and oil in a small microwavable container. Cook in the microwave, stirring every 30 seconds until the onion has softened. (Time will vary according to the strength of your microwave.) Remove from the microwave and stir in the oregano. Transfer to a small crock pot. Stir in the rice. Season the chicken pieces with salt and pepper. Tuck them down into the rice. Cover and cook on low, until the chicken is tender, 4 to 5 hours.
- Remove the chicken to a cutting board. Cover with a small piece of foil and let cool for a few minutes. In the meantime stir the spinach, 2/3 of the feta cheese and the cream into the slow cooker, stirring to combine all well. Shred the chicken with two forks and stir the chicken meat back into the slow cooker. Cover and let sit until everything is heated through, Stir in the lemon zest and lemon juice. Taste and adjust seasoning as required.
- Spoon out onto a small heated platter. Sprinkle with the remaining feta cheese and serve immediately.
