Cilantro Lime Chicken and Lentil Rice Bowls

I loved it! Josh thought it was a little bland (but he had also run out of hot sauce). He rates it 7/10 though. Heston ate it.

This is delicious, but after making it the second time I have some suggestions (because it was much better when I did these things). First, I halved the number of lentils. 2 cups is way too much. Second, I cooked them separately, on the stove. I find that the instant pot/slow cooker makes them way too mushy. Cut the chicken broth back to 1 cup. A bit less salsa verde as well. And it was absolutely scrumptious.

Made it on a regular pot so I could stirfry the onions, garlic, jalapeño and cilantro. Skipped the salsa verde. I used store bought roasted chicken so it only took about 30 minutes to be ready. Added a bit of parmesan cheese to serve. Loved it!

Serve with rice and sour cream. Best lentil dish I've found so far.

Delicious!! I'd make it once a week! And so easy!

Meh - I wanted this to taste fresh after all the chopping involved, but it turned out a little mushy. Would not make again.
