Curry chicken and rice (One pot)

This curry chicken and rice comes together in one pot, the best part is it takes 30 minutes from start to finish, Relax and let the spices and pot do the wonders for you. Cheers to one pot wonders!

My latest obsession: Curry chicken rice, all in one pot.
Nothing easy than a one pot dish. Fewer bowls to wash!
Because eating is nicer than washing dishes 

There is rice, chicken, carrots and green beans spiced with curry, ginger and garlic. It is a happy meal.
Feel free to add any vegetable of choice, add less curry or more as you want, gather patience for 25 minutes and get a spoon. If that is even necessary.
