This recipe is very inspiring! I make a lot of rice and curries but my family will love the rice bowl concept.
All your ingredients sound aromatic and a great blend of flavor. Can’t wait to try this week!

This was fantastic! (And I confess I am making it again tonight because we are a bit obsessed… ) I tweaked the recipe to add shallots to the chicken marinade (since I was out of garlic) and I chopped up the chicken into bite-size pieces prior to putting it into the plastic bag. Then, once it had soaked for a few hours, I sauteed the chicken instead of baking it – removing some of the liquid initially so it would brown then adding it back in along with the spinach. The garlic rice was the best rice we have ever had…addictive…the only changes I made was to rinse the rice prior and sautee it in the butter and oil to bring out some of the nutty flavor prior to boiling with the chicken broth.

Many thanks!

I made this dish tonight and it was DELICIOUS! I added sea salt to the chicken to cut the tartness of the lemon juice and used brown jasmine rice. I would make this dish on the regular.

Dining in for rice bowl is one of my favorite thing, but I never take the risk of doing it on my own since I am not good in cooking. But thanks anyway, maybe I can do it with this steps that you give. You really amazed me in posting recipes like this, the story behind every recipes that you gave are all inspiring. By the way, i’d like commend you for the idea of putting dried oregano to your recipes, since this is one of the healthiest medicinal herbs that is used in cooking. Health benefits such as treatment of respiratory tract disorders, gastrointestinal (GI) disorders, menstrual cramps, and urinary tract disorders are some of the benefits that one can get. You deserved a double thumbs up!

What an easy, delicious and healthy recipe. Great idea for a work day lunch. I love making different rice bowls for lunch because it’s so easy to take a quick bite here and there between work.

Pam, you and the New Yoek Times were on the same brain wave today.
