طريقة التحضير

خطوة بخطوة

1
Clean the chicken pieces by rinsing them with water and lime juice, then pat dry.
حوالي 5 د
ملاحظة الطاهي: The lime juice helps to tenderize the chicken and remove any unwanted odors.
2
In a bowl, season the chicken with salt, black pepper, minced garlic, and dried oregano. Mix well and set aside to marinate for at least 15 minutes.
حوالي 15 د
ملاحظة الطاهي: For deeper flavor, marinate the chicken for longer, even overnight in the refrigerator.
3
Heat olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat.
حوالي 1 د
4
Add sugar to the hot oil and cook until it caramelizes to a deep amber color, stirring frequently.
حوالي 2 د
ملاحظة الطاهي: This step gives the chicken its characteristic rich color and a subtle sweetness.
5
Carefully add the marinated chicken to the pot and sear on all sides until lightly browned.
حوالي 5 د
ملاحظة الطاهي: Do not overcrowd the pot; cook in batches if necessary.
6
Stir in the chopped red onion, green bell pepper, and tomato paste. Cook for 3-5 minutes until the vegetables soften and the tomato paste darkens slightly.
حوالي 4 د
7
Pour in the water, bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low.
حوالي 3 د
8
Cover the pot and simmer for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is tender and cooked through.
حوالي 25 د
ملاحظة الطاهي: Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
9
Stir in the fresh chopped cilantro and adjust seasoning if needed. Set the chicken aside.
حوالي 1 د
10
For the beans, heat olive oil in a separate medium saucepan over medium heat.
حوالي 1 د
11
Add the finely chopped red onion and green bell pepper. Sauté until softened, about 3-4 minutes.
حوالي 3 د
12
Stir in the minced garlic and tomato paste. Cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
حوالي 1 د
13
Add the drained and rinsed red kidney beans and water. Bring to a simmer.
حوالي 3 د
14
Partially mash some of the beans against the side of the pot with a spoon to thicken the sauce. Simmer for 10-15 minutes until the sauce has thickened to your desired consistency.
حوالي 10 د
ملاحظة الطاهي: This step creates a creamy texture for the beans.
15
Stir in the fresh chopped cilantro and season with salt and pepper to taste. Set aside.
حوالي 1 د
16
For the rice, combine long grain rice, water, and salt in a medium pot.
حوالي 1 د
17
Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover tightly, and cook for 18-20 minutes, or until all the water is absorbed.
حوالي 18 د
ملاحظة الطاهي: Do not lift the lid during cooking to ensure even steaming.
18
Remove from heat and let stand, covered, for 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork before serving.
حوالي 5 د
