Cooking notes
Cut chicken into even pieces so it cooks consistently, and cook it through before serving.
Spread cooked rice out to cool quickly when the recipe calls for chilled rice, then refrigerate it promptly.
Taste as you go and adjust seasoning to suit your ingredients and preferences.
Good to know
Serve it with a simple side that complements the main ingredients, such as a salad, cooked vegetables, bread or rice where appropriate.
You can often swap rice varieties, but cooking time and liquid requirements can change. Use the package directions for the rice you choose when they differ from the recipe.
