Ingredients
  • 250 g boneless skinless chicken thigh
  • 0.5 tsp garlic powder
  • 0.5 tsp paprika
  • 0.5 tsp salt
  • 0.25 tsp black pepper
  • 81.7 g basmati rice
  • 1.5 cup water
  • 100 g Tuscan kale
  • 150 g sweet onion
  • 15.9 g extra virgin olive oil
  • 0.25 tsp red pepper flakes
  • 1 tbsp lime juice
  • 2 sprig cilantro
Method
  1. 01Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a sheet pan with parchment paper.
  2. 02Pat chicken thighs dry. Season generously with garlic powder, paprika, black pepper, and half of the salt.
  3. 03Arrange chicken on the prepared sheet pan and roast for 20-25 minutes until the edges are deeply golden and the internal temperature reaches a safe 165°F (74°C) with juices running clear.
  4. 04While chicken roasts, rinse basmati rice under cold water until water runs clear. In a small pot, bring 1.5 cups of water to a boil, stir in rice, cover tightly, reduce heat to low, and simmer for 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let rest covered for 5 minutes.
  5. 05Heat extra virgin olive oil in a wide skillet over medium heat. Add diced sweet onions and sauté for 5-7 minutes until translucent and soft.
  6. 06Add stemmed and chopped Tuscan kale to the skillet with a splash of water to steam. Season with remaining salt, red pepper flakes, and freshly squeezed lime juice. Cook until kale is tender and wilted.
  7. 07Fluff the rice with a fork and plate alongside the roasted chicken thigh and braised Tuscan kale. Garnish with fresh cilantro.
