Risotto with chicken meat
Ingredients:
- 50 g rice
- 10 g carrot
- 10 g celery
- 10 g onion
- 10 g peppers
- 5 ml sunflower oil
- salt and pepper
- 100 g of chicken meat
Method of preparation:
Before we start the actual preparation of the pilaf, boil the poultry. We do not throw away the juice obtained because we will use it for rice.
In a little sticky pan, heat the oil. Then heat the finely chopped vegetables (first add the celery, carrot and after they have softened a bit, add the onion and pepper). When the onion takes on a slightly glassy tint, add the rice for 2-3 minutes. Immediately pour chicken soup. The soup should be about half a centimeter - 1 cm longer than the ingredients. Add the chicken and season with salt and pepper. Put the pan in the preheated oven at 180 degrees and let the rice boil for about 30 minutes. We check its consistency and if the grain has softened we can take the pan out of the oven
Medical advice:
Everyone tolerates food differently. There are some general guidelines for eating for those with frequent digestive symptoms such as bloating. Several foods are recognized for their marked ability to ferment at intestine level and produce gas. These are fiber-rich foods such as vegetables such as onions, sprouts, cabbage, Brussels sprouts, cauliflower, celery, radishes, legumes, black bread, some bakery products (baguettes, pretzels) fruits (dried fruits, raisins, apricots, plums). These foods should be avoided to reduce the symptoms of bloating. However, these foods are important for intestine functioning and it is not good to be completely excluded from eating.
Another category of food is food that leads to the formation of moderate intestinal gas and can be tolerated in small quantities. From this category we list potatoes, eggplants, wheat and pasta from wheat, citrus fruits.
Consuming increased amounts of these foods may cause symptoms. Fine pulp vegetables (peppers, tomatoes, carrots, spinach, lettuce, avocado) can be eaten, along with lean beef, calf, bird, and poor fish. Fruits, grapes, melons, and berries are well tolerated, but other fruits can be eaten raw or as a compote or baked. Among carbohydrate-rich foods, white rice is well tolerated.
Once again, it should be underlined that this categorization is indicative, with each person reacting differently to ingested foods. Individual tolerance should be tested to avoid unnecessary food restrictions and prevent gaps.
A food can be well tolerated in small amounts, but it can lead to unpleasant symptoms when consumed in larger quantities.
