Cherry Tomato & Chicken Saute With Brown Rice image

This is a quick and delicious lunch, especially if you use instant rice or prepare and freeze the rice ahead of time. You can also expand it by adding eggplant and/or broccoli to the sautee, at the same time as the chicken.

Time 15m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

8 cherry tomatoes
100 g boneless white chicken meat
1/4 white onion
2 large garlic cloves
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 1/2 teaspoons brown sugar
1 teaspoon oregano
salt
black pepper
1/2 cup cooked brown rice

Steps:

  • Quarter the cherry tomatoes, preserving as much juice as possible. Dice the onion, and mince the garlic.
  • Heat the olive oil in a pan on medium. Add the onion and garlic, and cook until onions begin to soften.
  • Add the brown sugar while stirring. Stir and cook for one more minute.
  • Add the tomatoes. Cook until the juice from the tomatoes begins to fill the bottom of the pan. As they cook, squash the tomatoes with a wooden spoon in the pan to create a sauce.
  • Push the saute to the edges of the pan, creating a clear circle in the middle. Add chicken, cooking and slowly mixing with the rest of the saute.
  • Before the chicken is entirely cooked, add the spices. Cook until chicken is cooked through.
  • Mix with the cooked rice in a bowl, and enjoy!
