Recipe
1 Cut up chicken or 5 cut up whole breasts
Short grain rice/pearl rice/Arborio rice any of these will do
Short grain rice you will use 1 to 2 ratio of rice to water, so I used here for 5 persons 5 cups rice to 10 cups water this recipe is supposed to be a bit “wet” at the end hence
“a la chorrera”
spices…as seen in mortar
Cumin
Paprika
Oregano
Blk pepper
Garlic powder
Latin Explosion seasoning
Mojo
Season Chicken well let sit for a few hours or overnight is best
Air fry chicken
Pre heat 400/5 mins
Brush basket with a little canola or any oil you like
Place chicken in basket brush as well, cook first batch at 400/22 mins
Flip half way and brush again finish cooking
TIP…for the following batches lower the temp to 390 as the fryer is so hot it may char the chicken a bit more than you’d want (It happened on my second batch LOL) live and learn
Pour thru sieve the marinade and drippings from air fryer into a container and keep to add to rice)
Set chicken aside or store in fridge till next day
The Rice…
Onions
Garlic
Green pepper
EVOO and I only had a little so I added what I had of grape seed oil too
Salt
Bijol or Pimentón (what gives that rice it’s yellow hue)
Water
Sauté the finely chopped veggies in the med hot oil
Once done add the water, Bijol (in my case) salt to taste and the rice
Stir cook on medium heat till almost done, then add the chicken pieces throughout the rice, give it a stir to incorporate all and cover to finish cooking about 5 or so mins
Then decorate with peas and red fancy pimientos slices
TIP…if someone don’t like the decorations to eat set a plate aside for then before decorating :) as I did for one of my grown ass kids hahaha!
TIP…some add a can of beer along with the water, mom did occasionally I did not for this recipe
I think I got it all down but any questions please leave me a comment
Thank you!
