Chicken And Rice With Cumin And Cilantro
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 pounds chicken wings tips removed, remaining seciotns separated into 2 pieces each
- 2 1/2 cups onions chopped
- 1/4 cup chopped garlic coarsely
- 1/4 cup ginger coarsely chopped peeled
- 2 cups long grain white rice
- 1 1/2 tablespoons ground cumin
- 14 1/2 ounces diced tomatoes use juice
- 2 1/2 teaspoons salt
- 1 tablespoon Sriracha or other hot chili sauce
- 2 1/2 cups water
- 1/2 chopped fresh cilantro
- Heat the oil in a large skilling - I used a 14 inch cast iron skillet. The wings need to cook in a single layer. Dry the wings with paper towels. Place them in the hot oil in a singer layer and brown for about 8 minutes over high heat. Turn the wings over and brown about another 8 minutes. Transfer the wings to a plate and set aside.
- Add the onion, garlic and ginger to the drippings in the skillet and cook for about 2 - 3 minutes. Add the rice and cumin and mix well. Add the tomatoes, salt, Sriracha, water an chopped cilantro stems. Mix well.
- Return the wings to the pan and bring to a strong boil. Cover, reduce heat to low and cook for about 30 minutes or until the wings are cooked through and the rice is tender.
- Serve with chopped cilantro, if desired.
