Method

  • Slice chicken into strips, coat with Portuguese spice and add to the hot frying pan. Cook for 5-6 minutes or until brown - flipping halfway.

  • Meanwhile, combine the remaining ingredients to form a salsa.

  • Heat SunRice brown rice in the microwave.

  • Serve all ingredients together!

  • Notes

    This recipe is naturally gluten-free!
    Don’t have a microwave? You can also heat up the rice in a small saucepan on medium for 1-2 minutes. I like to add 2 tsps of water to prevent the rice from sticking to the pan.
    This recipe is dairy free and nut free.
