Instructions
1
- Boil a half-full kettle.
- Meanwhile, heat a drizzle of oil in a frying pan on medium-high heat.
- Once hot, fry the chicken, 5-6 mins. Season with salt and pepper. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and utensils after handling raw meat.
- Pour the boiled water into a saucepan with 1/4 tsp salt on high heat.
- Boil the rice, 10-12 mins. Once cooked, drain, pop back in the pan and cover.
2
- Stir the Cajun spice mix (add less if you'd prefer things milder), passata, red wine stock paste, sugar and water (see pantry for both) into the chicken.
- Bring to the boil, then simmer, 4-5 mins. IMPORTANT: Cook so there's no pink in the middle of the chicken.
3
- Meanwhile, grate the Cheddar cheese.
- Next, add the spinach in handfuls, making sure it's piping hot, 1-2 mins.
- Stir in the BBQ sauce and butter (see pantry). Add a splash of water if it's a little too thick.
4
- Share the rice out between your bowls.
- Spoon the chicken alongside the rice.
- Sprinkle over the cheese to finish.
Enjoy!
