Start your recipe by seasoning the chicken breast cubes with salt, pepper and fine herbs.

Heat a large pan with the oil, and when it is very hot, add the garlic and onion.
Saute until the onion is translucent.
Then add the chicken cubes and 1/2 glass of water.
Cook over high heat until the water has completely evaporated.
Add the chili pepper and saffron.
Mix well. Add the raw rice to the pan and stir.
Add water and cook the rice normally.
Serve it hot!
You can substitute white rice for the rice of your choice, such as parboiled rice or brown rice.
The texture of the chicken is very similar to risotto, since the chicken cooked with rice gives the recipe an extra creaminess!
In addition,
the chicken can be served alone, but it is even better with side dishes such as okra and banana flour.
Use your imagination and good appetite!
