"One pot, mucho flavour"
If there’s one thing I love more than a good meal, it’s a good meal that
only dirties one pot. Enter my
One-Pot Mexican Chicken and Rice, the
ultimate dinner hack that brings the fiesta straight to your kitchen without
turning it into a disaster zone. Less washing up, more eating. Priorities,
right?
This dish is bursting with bold, zesty flavours, but here’s the best part,
it’s ridiculously easy to whip up. Minimal prep, simple ingredients you
probably already have lying around, and in no time, you’ve got tender
chicken, fluffy rice, and a whole lot of flavour magic simmering away
together.
It’s also a total
meal-prep superhero. Make a big
batch and you’ll have lunches or dinners sorted for days, and trust me, it
tastes even better the next day when all those spices have had time to
mingle. Think of it as leftovers that don’t feel like leftovers.
So, whether you’re cooking for the family, prepping for the week, or just
want something hearty without the faff, this recipe has your back. One pot,
zero stress, and maximum flavour, basically, the dream dinner
situation.
Chicken Fillets or Bone-in Chicken?
Whether you’re team chicken fillets or love bone-in pieces (drumsticks, thighs, wings), this recipe’s got you covered. The only thing you’ll need to watch out for is cooking time, bone-in takes a little longer, but don’t worry, I’ve shared exactly what to do below in the method so you can nail it either way.
I just want to make Mexican Rice?
Not in the mood for chicken? No problem! Just jump in at Step 5 and skip
the chicken bits of the method. It’s just as flavour-packed and perfect as a
side or a stand-alone dish.
