How to master the versatile pantry staple: the basic pilaf method
In short: Learn to create a nutritious meal using only cupboard essentials. This video demonstrates a flexible technique for making a chicken, rice, and beans pilaf that works with almost any meat, beans, or spices you have on hand.
Part of a 'Pandemic Pantry' series, this method focuses on using accessible ingredients to create a complete meal. The recipe uses bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs, basmati rice, and canned black beans, seasoned with chili powder, cumin, and oregano.
The process involves browning the chicken in an ovenproof pan, sautéing aromatics like onion, celery, and carrot, and simmering the rice in broth. The dish is finished in a 180ºC (350ºF) oven for 35 to 40 minutes.
