Ingredients

  • 40g raw boneless chicken breast
  • 2 tbsp uncooked white rice
  • 2 tbsp cleaned mushrooms, finely chopped
  • Water or unsalted chicken stock as specified on the rice package, plus a little extra if needed to moisten the mash
  • 1 tsp olive oil (optional)

Preparation

  1. Cook the measured two tablespoons of dry rice with sufficient safe water until thoroughly soft; follow the packet and do not rely on the old short time estimate.

  2. Wash and finely chop mushrooms; sauté or steam until thoroughly cooked and tender.

  3. Cook chicken separately until it reaches 74°C (165°F); finely shred or chop without chewy pieces.

  4. Mix tender rice, cooked mushrooms and chicken, adding water or unsalted stock for a moist, non-clumped texture.

  5. Stir in optional oil, cool to feeding temperature and refrigerate untouched rice promptly according to cooked-rice rules.

Serving by Age

Serve a moist, spoonable mash or soft manageable pieces suited to developmental skills. Check for chewy meat fibres. Avoid sticky compacted rice clumps. Do not offer firm, round or hard pieces.

10 months+

This recipe is listed for 10m+, so the 9m+ field does not recommend serving it earlier. Within the listed age range and when your baby can manage the texture, serve as a soft, moist bowl with finely chopped chicken and mushrooms mixed into well-cooked rice; mash lightly if needed and ensure no dry or firm pieces.

Allergen Information
