Butter chicken rice

Today I had to make an improvised meal for myself, so I looked around the kitchen and created one of the easiest, quickest meals ever (plus, I thought it was really nice). It is simple, and some might find it too bland, but I would like to think of it as holding 'delicate' flavours. It basically consisted of rice, chicken (so I wouldn't recommend this to vegetarians), butter and sage.

Ingredients:

Chicken thigh (per person)
Cup of risotto rice (per person)
Butter (I don't know how much butter exactly, but about a table spoon sized chunk, like the image on the right- the smaller piece)
Handful of cut up sage (per person)

What to do:

  1. If you have a rice cooker, put the rice in the cooker with water. If you don't have a rice cooker, put rice in a pot with water until cooked.
  2. Cut up chicken into small pieces and fry with a bit of oil so it doesn't stick to the fry pan
  3. Add the handful of sage to the chicken when chicken is no longer raw
  4. When the rice is cooked, add the butter to the chicken, which allows it is melt, and then pour everything in the pan on top of the rice.
And that is it, and I really enjoyed my dinner tonight, which I'm glad, because I had no idea what I was making at the time and was just hoping that whatever I made would come out edible. 


Unfortunately I don't have a picture of my meal, or couldn't find an image that could resemble it, so I thought I should just go with a picture of rice in general.
