Tonight's meal, was unfortunately a bit of a disappointment.

The Chili was bland, without any real flavour and even less spiciness.  The rice unfortunately clumped together and was rather unappealing.

There was also very little meat in the dish, the watery sauce being bulked out by a few bits of tomato and kidney bean.

Overall, not recommended and were i served this in a restaurant, it would be going straight back to the kitchen,

Tip:
Add a small dollop of creme fraiche makes it somewhat more palatable.

The first thing that struck me upon unsheathing tonight's dinner was a distinct lack of meat.

After removing from the microwave, the meaty half of the container appeared quite watery, but with an appealing aroma.  The rice was stuck together, but soft and well cooked.

The flavour of the chicken and sauce was pleasant, not restaurant level of course, but much better than your regular microwave meal.  The meat was tender and combined with the absorbent rice the meal can be recommended.

Warning:
The oil / sauce from this dish WILL stain anything it comes into contact with, be it your clothes or white leather couch (urgh!), beware!

Tip:
Add a small dollop of creme fraiche to the sauce for a more rounded taste.
