Cooking Steps
• Boil the kettle. Half-fill a medium saucepan with boiling water. • Add basmati rice and a pinch of salt and cook, uncovered, over a high heat until tender, 12 minutes. • Drain and return to the saucepan. Add 1/2 the butter, stir to combine and cover to keep warm.
• While the rice is cooking, trim green beans and slice into thirds. Finely chop garlic. Roughly chop silverbeet. Place your hand flat on top of each chicken breast and slice through horizontally to make two thin steaks. • In a medium bowl, combine Nan's special seasoning, a pinch of salt and a drizzle of olive oil. Add chicken and turn to coat. • Heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Toast flaked almonds, tossing, until golden, 2-3 minutes. Transfer to a bowl.
• Return the frying pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook green beans until tender, 4-5 minutes. • Add garlic and silverbeet, tossing until wilted, 2-3 minutes. Season, then transfer to a bowl and cover to keep warm. • Return the frying pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook chicken until cooked through, 3-5 minutes each side (cook in batches if your pan is getting crowded). • Remove pan from heat, then add romesco sauce, a splash of water and the remaining butter, turning chicken to coat.
TIP: The spice blend will char slightly in the pan, this adds to the flavour! TIP: Chicken is cooked through when it's no longer pink inside.
• Divide rapid rice and garlicky greens between bowls. • Top with romesco chicken and any remaining sauce from the pan. • Garnish with toasted almonds.
