Lazy rice with chicken in the oven recipe. Lazy rice with chicken in the oven
Anyone who has had to cook rice knows very well that it takes a long time to cook, it either burns or runs away, you can’t move away from it!.. Therefore, recipes for cooking rice that do not require standing at the stove for a long time are very popular. So, quick rice (or lazy rice) according to three simple recipes:
A coworker gave me this recipe for quick rice. She said that this rice does not run away or burn and cooks quickly. If you adapt to this recipe, then the rice turns out as it should: crumbly.
The main thing in this recipe is the ratio of rice and water volumes: 1:2.
Cooking time: 24 minutes.
Ingredients for making quick rice:
- Rice - 1 glass
- Water - 2 glasses
- Onion - 1-2 onions
- Carrots - 2 medium carrots

- Salt to taste.
How to cook quick rice for a side dish:
- Finely chop the onion.
- Grate the carrots on a coarse grater.
- Fry onions and carrots.

The recipe for quick rice with minced meat is my variation of the first recipe. And this is no longer a side dish, but a full-fledged, satisfying second course, which we often prepare in our family.
Ingredients for making quick rice with minced meat:
- Rice - 1 cup 300 ml
- Water - 3 such glasses
- Onion - 250-300 g
- Carrots – 150 g
- Minced meat (beef and pork or pure beef) - 250-300 g (but more is possible)
- Vegetable oil for frying vegetables
- Bouillon cube - 1-2 pcs. or your favorite seasonings - to taste
- Tomato paste, sauce or ketchup - to taste
- Salt - to taste.
How to cook quick rice with minced meat:
- Peel the onion and chop finely. I have frozen chopped onions, so I won’t say how much it will be in the onions. And the bulbs are all different in size.
- Grate the carrots on a coarse grater. I also prepared carrots in advance.
- Lightly fry the onions and carrots in vegetable oil in a deep frying pan.
- Add minced meat and rice washed in cold water.
- Heat the water, dilute the bouillon cubes in it and pour in the mixture of rice, minced meat and vegetables. If you don’t use cubes, just fill them with water (or boiling water).
- Close the lid, wait until it boils and cook over high heat for 5 minutes. Do not open the lid!
- Continue cooking over medium heat for 10 minutes. At the end of this cooking period, open the lid and see if all the water has been absorbed and if the food has started to burn. If necessary, add a little more water or oil.
- Add tomato sauce, seasonings (if cooking without a bouillon cube), stir well and put on the lowest heat for another 5 minutes.
- Turn off the heat and let stand for at least 15 minutes, and maximum until the family gathers at the table :)
Thus, the entire preparation of quick rice with minced meat takes about 35 minutes.
Like any recipe, my recipe requires some adaptation. Everyone’s stoves are different, and so are their pots and pans. So my cooking times don't have to be treated as dogma. You will see for yourself how long this dish will take to prepare for you.
