Cummulative Rating

Servings
Makes 2 servings.
Difficulty
Easy

Ingredients

1 cup white rice, uncooked (see recipe for Steamed Rice)

1/2 cup cashews
2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 large egg white, lightly beaten
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 8oz. can crushed pineapple in juice, drained

2 Tablespoons fresh basil, chopped
2 Tablespoons slivered almonds, toasted

Directions

Prepare rice according to the directions in Steamed Rice.

Preheat the oven to 450°F.

While the rice is cooking, place the cashews in a food processor and process until finely chopped. Pour the nuts into a shallow dish. Brush chicken breasts with egg white and dredge in nut mixture.

Spread the pineapple in an 8x8 inch, lightly oiled, baking dish. Arrange the chicken over the pineapple. Season chicken with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Bake for 15 minutes, turning half way through, or until chicken is cooked through. Transfer the chicken to a plate and tent with foil to keep warm.

Fluff the rice with a fork. Add the basil, toasted almonds and pineapple (from the baking pan) to the rice and stir to combine. Adjust seasonings to taste with salt.

Serve rice with chicken.
