4 chicken breasts, cooked and chopped in small pieces
3 tablespoons canola oil
1 large red pepper, chopped
1 large yellow pepper, chopped
1 large green pepper, chopped
1 garlic clove, crushed
1 medium onion, chopped
3 cups of rice
5 cups of water
2 cups of mixed veggies in pieces (carrot, peas, beans, yellow corn)
1 chicken bouillon cube
1 packet of seasoning with saffron
Salt to taste

Heat oil in a large pot over low heat. Stir-fry the chopped peppers, garlic and onion, and stir until they’re golden brown. Add 3 cups of rice; remember to stir everything well. Add 5 cups of water, the chopped veggies, chicken breast, bouillon, seasoning and salt. Stir and let cook at medium heat for approximately 15 minutes or until the rice dries. Once rice has absorbed all the water, cover the pot and cook at low heat for 10 to 15 minutes until the rice is soft.
