Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to make buckwheat with chicken in a frying pan? Prepare the necessary ingredients for this. Any parts of the chicken can be used. Iʼll cook it with chicken fillet. This is convenient because there will be no seeds in the dish. You can use breast fillet or thigh fillet as fillet.

Step 2

Step 2
Rinse the chicken fillet in running water and dry with a paper towel. Then cut the meat into pieces. There is no need to cut very finely. The chicken should taste good in the finished dish.

Step 3

Step 3
Quickly take a deep one with a flat bottom and high sides. Pour some vegetable oil on it and heat it until hot. Add the chopped chicken and fry in hot oil until golden brown. This will take about 10 minutes. Stir the meat periodically so that it does not burn.

Step 4

Step 4
Peel the onions and carrots and rinse them to remove dirt. Chop the onion not very finely. Grate the carrots on a coarse grater. If you chop the vegetables too much, they will not be visible in the finished dish; they will simply boil apart during stewing.

Step 5

Step 5
Add the chopped vegetables to the pan with the chicken. Mix everything and fry for another 3-5 minutes. Frying vegetables will give off a pleasant smell.

Step 6

Step 6
Separately, rinse the buckwheat several times. Then drain all the water from it. Place the washed buckwheat in the pan with the chicken and mix everything.

Step 7

Step 7
Sprinkle everything with a little salt and spices. Pour hot water into the pan. There should be 2 times more water than cereal. Even if you take less cereal than indicated in the recipe, the ratio of buckwheat to water should be 1/2. Cover the pan with a lid, reduce the heat and leave to cook for 15-20 minutes.

Step 8

Step 8
After the specified time, the buckwheat will absorb all the water and become soft. Move the edge of the buckwheat a little and check for water. If there is no water, then the dish is ready. Remove from heat and leave to stand covered for 10-15 minutes.

Step 9

Step 9
Buckwheat with chicken in a frying pan is ready! It turns out nourishing and very tasty! Bon appetit!
