Method
0 of 5 done- Rinse the rice under cold water until the water runs clear. In a small pot, bring 200ml of chicken stock to a boil, add the rice, reduce heat to low, cover and simmer for 15 minutes or until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed. Set aside, covered.
- While the rice is cooking, heat 1 tbsp of olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Season the chicken breast with a pinch of salt and black pepper on both sides. Add the chicken to the pan and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until cooked through and golden brown. Remove from the pan and set aside to rest.
- In the same pan, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Pour in the double cream and bring to a gentle simmer. Stir in the grated cheddar cheese until melted and the sauce is smooth.
- Slice the cooked chicken breast and return it to the pan with the cheese sauce. Coat the chicken in the sauce and heat through for about 2 minutes.
- To serve, spoon the cooked rice onto a plate, top with the cheesy chicken slices and sauce. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley if desired.
