Ingredients
- 1.5 lbs Chicken breast
- 2 cups Rice
- 2 medium Onion
- 2 medium Tomato
- 1 tsp Cumin
- 1 tsp Coriander
- 1/2 tsp Salt
- 1/2 tsp Black pepper
- 4 cups Water
Method
- Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a large pot over medium heat, until shimmering, about 2 minutes, then add the chicken breast and cook until browned on all sides, about 5-6 minutes.
- Remove the chicken from the pot, then add another tablespoon of oil if necessary, and cook the onion and tomato until the onion is translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
- Add the rice, cumin, coriander, salt, and black pepper to the pot, and stir to combine, cooking for 1 minute, until fragrant.
- Add the water to the pot, then return the chicken to the pot, and bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the rice is tender.
- Fluff the rice with a fork, then serve the gahwa hot, garnished with fresh parsley or cilantro, if desired.
- Stir the gahwa constantly while it's cooking to prevent the rice from becoming too sticky.
