Curried Chicken and Rice
Ingredients
  • 1 cup uncooked long-grain white rice
  • 6 ounces diced dried mixed fruit
  • 1/2 cup chopped onion
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups water
  • 1 (3 pound) chicken, cut into pieces
  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 4 teaspoons curry powder, divided
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to the optimal temperature of 375 degrees Fahrenheit (or 190 degrees Celsius).
2
In a standard-sized baking dish measuring 9x13 inches, combine cooked rice, mixed fruit, sautéed onion, granulated sugar, and a pinch of salt. Gradually add water to the mixture until it reaches the desired consistency.
3
Next, place your preferred chicken pieces on top of the rice mixture. In a small container, blend softened butter with curry powder and paprika until well combined.
4
Using your fingers or a spoon, apply the butter mixture evenly over each chicken piece. Cover the entire dish tightly with aluminum foil to prevent moisture loss during cooking.
5
Place the covered pan in the preheated oven and bake for 1 hour, or until the chicken's juices flow freely and the rice is tenderly cooked.
