Add olive oil to the saucepan and fry the spring onions for about 5 minutes.

Add 200 g of rice to the saucepan.

Add 0.5 teaspoon of chili powder, 1 teaspoon of paprika, 1 teaspoon of turmeric, 1 teaspoon of cumin, and 1 teaspoon of dried oregano to the rice.

Pour in 250 ml of boiling water from the kettle.

Stir the contents of the pan and leave to simmer for 15 minutes, topping up with a little water if the rice begins to dry out.

Chop half a washed red pepper into chunks.

When there are 5 minutes left of cooking, add the chopped red pepper to the saucepan.

If allowed, add no more than 3 tablespoons of peas per serving to the mixture.

Mix all the ingredients together and leave to simmer for a final 5 minutes.

After cooking, remove the rice from the stove and stir in some roasted or grilled chicken.
