Step 7
Pour liquid mixture over top of chicken and vegetables. Add more water if necesary
Step 8
Loosly cover dish with tinfoil if you don't want crispy rice at the top, but not too tight , because you want to let the steam out. Tip recommend rectangular pie dish about two inches deep.
Step 9
Bake in oven for about 1hr or until cooked through and all the liquid has absorbed. ( recommend stir halfway through, also if drying out too quick you can add more water.) Optional you can serve with chopped coriander. Note you can swap out or in any vegetables you like. Be mindful that if you take out the chicken, you may need additional water as the vegetables may get too dry.
