Instructions

1

Prepare the chicken: In a heavy-bottomed pot, sear 450g of chicken drumsticks until the skin is deeply golden and rendered.

2

Braise: Add the Pomodorina sauce, minced fresh ginger, and a splash of water. Cover and simmer (braise) over medium-low heat for 35-40 minutes until the meat is tender and pulling away slightly from the bone.

3

Rice: While the chicken braises, steam the basmati rice blend according to package directions.

4

Greens: In the final 5 minutes of cooking, fold the chopped rainbow swiss chard into the braising liquid until just wilted but still vibrant.

5

Plating: Scoop a generous portion of the rice into a bowl, top with the braised chicken, and pour the ginger-infused tomato sauce and greens over the top. Garnish heavily with fresh chopped flat-leaf parsley.
