directions

  • In the afternoon, or at least one hour before making the dish, combine the olive oil,juice. Place chicken breast in a plastic bag and add olive oil juice mixture then refrigerate for at least an hour.
  • Make sure that the marinade coats the meat. The rest of this process should only take 20 minutes if the steps are followed in order.
  • Remove the chicken and place on a hot grill ( total cooking time will be 20 minutes.) and immediately proceed to the next step.
  • Add the water to the rice and place in a covered pan over a stove burner with a very low flame.( total heating time will be 15 minutes). After the chicken and the rice have cooked for 10 minutes; turn the chicken breast over.
  • Chop the onion and peppers and set aside. After the chicken and rice have cooked for another 5 minutes, turn off the flame under the rice, but do NOT remove the cover.
  • Heat up a small amount of butter and/or olive oil in a frying pan; heat the onion and bell peppers until soft. After the chicken has cooked for an additional 5 minutes ( 20 minutes total) remove from the heat. Remove the cover on the rice and stir in the heated onion and bell pepper.
  • Pour the rice mixture on a plate and place the chicken breast on top.
  • Salt ( I like lemon salt) and pepper to taste.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

Some of you know me as Brother William. No, I am not really a Monk, but I have grown to enjoy my simple and solo lifestyle. My love for humanity is based on fellowship rather than sensuality. I PROMISE that I will never share a recipe unless I have tasted the food. Most of the recipes are mine, but I have included a few classics, and some recipes that were written by very creative people, that are just so good that I had to share. From time to time I have found recipes with my name on them in print magazines, but they are always altered in some way by the publisher. So there is no reason why you should not add your own personal touch. If you leave this page with just one thought, I hope that it would be that Cooking is a Creative Sport. I grew up in Glenview Illinois, just north of Chicago. My Mother loved those little exotic cookbooks, that were sold as a weekly series in grocery stores in the 1950's. I was taught to eat whatever was put on my plate so I ate food from a different culture every week. If I had to pick a favorite, it would be Mediterranean. After leaving my Mother's table, I have lived and enjoyed eating in Colorado, Missouri, Montana and Nebraska, before settling in Saint Cloud, Minnesota in 1975. After a 30 year marriage with mixed reviews, I am now pleasantly single again, and plan to stay that way. Up until recently, I had occupied my evenings just talking with people and sometimes sharing recipes, while soliciting donations for Non-Profit Organizations. Yes .. that's right, for over 20 years, I was a Telemarketer. The perfect job for a Taurus. I enjoy reading cook books the same way most people read novels,and I am still improving my skills in the art of Solo Cooking. However; my true passion will always be sharing my favorite recipes with all of you.
