Healthy Bite: Arabian Chicken Rice

Final year of college we mustered up the courage to join the gym and start cooking healthy meals. After spending an hour in the gym, the standard greasy cravings vanished. This recipe got us back on track. Instead of the noodles packed with MSG and salt, we replaced our dinners with “Arabian Chicken”. Atleast our addiction shifted to a healthier direction.
