Ingredients

3 chicken breasts

1 1/2 cups Basmati rice

1 1/2 cups chicken broth

2 medium tomato

1 small onion

2 garlic cloves

2 medium green pepper

1 lime juice

1 tbsp. olive oil

Salt and pepper to taste

Recipe – 10min prep / 30min cooking time,

Step 1.

Finely chop the chicken.

Preheat a pot.

Put the chopped chickens in the pot.

After 2 minutes, low the fire.

Close the lid of the pot.

Allow the chickens to release and absorb their water.

Fry the chickens on high heat with very little oil.

Add some salt and pepper.

Fry for a while longer and put the browned chicken in a bowl.

Do not turn off the stove.

Step 2.

Add 1 tbsp of olive oil to the same pot.

Put the chopped onions in the pot, fry them, add the chopped peppers, fry a little more, and finally add the garlic.

After frying them all together, add the washed and dried basmati rice, and fry for a while.

Add chicken broth to the same pot, then add lime juice.

Tip: You can also add lemon juice instead of lime.

Wash and rinse the boiled Mexican beans, and add them as well.

Finally, add the diced tomatoes.

Mix gently.

Increase the fire, and close the lid of the pot.

Cook like this until it boils.

After boiling well, reduce the fire and continue cooking on low heat until the rice is cooked.

Make sure the lid of the pot is always closed.

Step 3.

When the rice has absorbed all the water in the pan, add the fried chicken, mix gently, and turn off the fire and the lid of the pan.

Recommendation: Let the cooked chicken rice and beans rest for at least 30 minutes (even better for 1 hour) without opening the lid.

That’s all.

Protein: 8.3g

Ingredients

1 cup Greek yogurt

1/2 cup purslane

10 leaves of fresh mint

1 small cucumber

2.4 fl. oz. water

1 garlic 1 clove

Recipe – 5min prep time

Wash the purslane leaves thoroughly.

Recommendation: Better still, soak purslane leaves in vinegar water for half an hour. Then rinse with plenty of water. In this way, you will not have to worry about cleaning.

Finely chop the cucumber.

Tip: You can see the cucumbers grated in most recipes. Yes, maybe this sounds like an easier process, but since cucumbers are very juicy vegetables, you can end up with an extra-juicy Tzatziki.

Crush the garlic clove.

Wash the mint leaves thoroughly.

Bring a deep bowl.

Put Greek yogurt in it.

Then add purslane, mint leaves, crushed garlic clove, and finely chopped cucumber.

Add some salt and mix well.

Finally, add the water and mix once more.

Recommendation: Add water in moderation so you are not likely to get a very juicy Tzatziki.

That’s all.

Bottom Line

You have a very healthy and delicious meal.

If you can’t find fresh mint, add dried mint in Tzatziki, sprinkle chopped scallion on chicken rice and beans when ready, or use chopped steak instead of chicken.
