We prefer the sweetness of fresh papaya, but you can also use the cubes of jarred papaya in the produce section of the supermarket. Ingredients:
2 teaspoons olive oil |
1 garlic clove, minced |
1 cup basmati rice |
1 (14-ounce) can fat-free, less-sodium chicken broth |
1/4 cup water |
1 teaspoon jamaican jerk seasoning (such as mccormick) |
1 cup diced papaya |
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
Directions:
1. Heat olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat; add garlic, and sauté 1 minute. Add rice; cook 30 seconds, stirring constantly. Add broth, water, and seasoning. Bring to a boil; cover, reduce heat, and simmer 18 minutes or until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed. Remove from heat; stir in papaya, cilantro, and salt.
