Before You Start

Pat the chicken breast dry and season it, trim the green beans, mince the garlic, and warm the rice.

How To Make It
  1. Sear the chicken breast in the olive oil over medium high heat, 6 to 7 minutes a side, until golden and it reaches 165°F in the center with no pink, then set it aside.
    165°F
  2. Cook the green beans in the same pan, 4 to 5 minutes, until bright and just tender.
  3. Add the spinach and cook, stirring, 1 to 2 minutes, until it wilts down.
  4. Bloom the smoked paprika, garlic, and saffron in a little oil, about 1 minute, until fragrant.
  5. Slice the chicken, spoon it and the vegetables over the brown rice, drizzle the bloomed spices over, and serve warm.
Fix It: If the outside browns before the center hits 165°F, lower the heat and cover the pan so it finishes without burning.
Air Fryer
  1. Heat the air fryer to 380F.
  2. Add the ingredients you would cook on the stove or in the oven in a single layer, without crowding the basket.
  3. Cook for about 15 minutes, shaking the basket halfway, until cooked through and lightly crisp.
  4. Let it rest a minute, then finish and plate the dish as written in the steps above.
