A creamy and flavorful chicken and rice dish made with jasmine rice, chicken thighs, and real milk, perfect for meal prep. This one-pot meal is seasoned with turmeric, garlic powder, and ginger, and includes spinach and carrot for added nutrition.
1: Heat olive oil in a large skillet or pot over medium-high heat.
2: Add diced chicken, season with salt, pepper, turmeric, garlic powder, and ginger. Sauté until golden and mostly cooked through.
3: Add rinsed rice, shredded carrot, and spinach to the pan. Stir everything together so it's well combined.
4: Pour in the chicken broth and real milk. Stir gently to combine and bring the mixture to a light simmer.
5: Reduce heat to low, cover the pan, and let it cook for about 15–18 minutes, or until the rice is tender.
6: Turn off the heat. Let it sit covered for 5 minutes, then fluff with a fork.
7: Finish off with lemon juice and parsley, divide into meal prep containers, let cool slightly before sealing, and store in the fridge.
