Ingredients

Rice Pudding

  • 1/2 cup Jasmine rice
  • 1.75 cups Milk
  • 1.5 TBSP Granulated sugar
  • Pinch Kosher salt
  • 2 TBSP Heavy cream
  • 1/4 tsp Powdered sugar
  • 1/4 tsp Ground cinnamon for dusting

Dressing

  • 2 TBSP Extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 tsp Red wine vinegar
  • 1 tsp Lemon juice
  • 1 tsp Garlic grated
  • 1 tsp Dried oregano

Seasoning

  • Salt
  • Black pepper

Salad

  • 1 TBSP Extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1.5 cups Beets peeled and diced into bite sized pieces
  • 8 oz Chicken breast boneless skinless
  • 4 cups Romaine lettuce chopped
  • 1/2 cup Tomato diced
  • 1/2 cup Cucumber sliced then quartered
  • 1/3 cup Red onion sliced
  • 1 cup Green bell pepper sliced
  • 1/3 cup Kalamata olives drained and sliced
  • 2 oz Feta cheese (block) cut into chunks
  • 2 slices Greek bread toasted

Kombucha

  • 24 oz Kombucha cold

Instructions

  • Make the rice pudding: Place rice in a large saucepan. Add the milk, sugar, and salt. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring frequently and scraping the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon or rubber spatula so that the rice does not stick. Reduce the heat to a low simmer and cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the rice is very tender and the mixture starts to thicken, about 20 minutes.
  • Remove from the heat and allow to cool down before placing into a container to refrigerate and cool fully, about 4 to 12 hours.
  • Prep the ingredients for the salad per the instructions above.
  • Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • Make the dressing: In a bowl whisk together all of the ingredients for the dressing and store in the refrigerator until ready to use.
  • Place the beets on a foil-lined baking sheet. Drizzle with half the oil and season with salt and pepper. Mix together until nicely coated. Cook in the oven until easily pierced with a fork, about 20 minutes. Then set aside.
  • Preheat a grill or grill pan on medium heat.
  • Season the chicken on both sides with salt and pepper. Drizzle with the remaining oil. Grill the chicken for 6-8 minutes per side until nicely charred to an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C) using a thermometer. Once cooked set aside to rest for 3 to 5 minutes before dicing into bite-sized pieces.
  • Toast the bread.
  • Finish the rice pudding: Whip the cream and powdered sugar in a bowl until stiff peaks form. Top the rice pudding with whipped cream and dust with cinnamon.
  • Make the salad: Arrange the lettuce and remaining ingredients (except the bread) for the salad on a plate, and top it with chicken, beets, and dressing.
  • Serve the salad with bread and kombucha. Enjoy with rice pudding.
