We all know that, in order to really be healthful, nutritious and balanced meal plans are important as are good amounts of exercise. The worst part is that, at the end of the day, we don’t always have the time or energy required for a healthy lifestyle. At the end of the day, almost everyone want to go home, not to the gym. We want a tasty, greasy burger, not an equally delightful salad (unless we’re vegetarians). The good news is that making wise decisions doesn’t have to be irritating. If you keep at it, you’ll get all of the required nutrients and exercise. Here are some ideas to be as healthy as possible.

Run the stairs. Instead of picking the elevator, climb the stairs to your floor. While this will be tough to do if you live on or if your job is on a extremely high level floor in a skyscraper, taking the stairs to a home or office on, say, the fifth floor is completely do-able. Even if you do live or work on one of the higher floors, you can still get off of the elevator early and climb up the stairs the rest of the way. Lots of people choose the easy elevator ride instead of making an effort on the stairs. Even just a single flight of stairs, when walked up or down a few times a day–can be a great improvement to your system.

There are a good deal of things that work toward your getting healthy. An costly gym membership and very restrictive diets are not the only way to do it. It is the little things you choose on a daily basis that really help you with weight loss and getting healthy. Being clever when you choose your food and activities is where it begins. Getting as much exercise as you possibly can is another factor. Remember: being healthful isn’t just about slimming down. It has more to do with making your body as powerful as it can be.

We hope you got insight from reading it, now let’s go back to (somewhat deconstructed) arroz con pollo recipe. You can have (somewhat deconstructed) arroz con pollo using 13 ingredients and 9 steps. Here is how you achieve that.

The ingredients needed to prepare (Somewhat Deconstructed) Arroz con Pollo:

1. You need 3 pounds chicken pieces (We like skin-on, but you can do skin off)
2. Take 2 teaspoons salt
3. Use 1/2 teaspoon pepper
4. Prepare 2 Tablespoons flour
5. Take 1 Tablespoon oil
6. Take 1 medium onion, minced
7. Get 1 small bell pepper, minced (I like the sweeter red, orange and yellow ones for this recipe.)
8. Use 6 cloves garlic, chopped
9. Get 1 packet sazon con azafran (I use Goya brand.)
10. Get 1 cup canned tomatoes (crushed, diced, pureed all ok)
11. Prepare 1 cup unsalted chicken stock
12. Take 1 bay leaf
13. Use 1 cup frozen peas

Instructions to make (Somewhat Deconstructed) Arroz con Pollo:

1. Season chicken with the 2 teaspoons of salt and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, and then dust with 2 Tablespoons of flour. - - Then, in a 4 to 5 quart pot, bring 1 Tablespoon oil up to medium high heat, then brown chicken for 3 to 4 minutes per side and set aside. You'll probably want to break this up into two batches so you don't crowd your cooking surface.
2. If you used skin-on chicken, you'll have a bit of rendered chicken fat left in your pot. Remove all but about 1 Tablespoon and add your onion, pepper, and garlic and sweat the mixture until the onions are translucent. (This Holy Trinity base of Latin cooking is called refrito or sofrito, depending on the region) - - If you didn't use skin on, you'll want to add up to another (1) Tablespoon of oil to the pot.
3. Add your sazon packet and mix it in.
4. Add tomatoes, stock, and bay leaf and give it a couple of good stirs.
5. Add in your chicken, turn the heat down to medium, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, and ensuring that the heat doesn't get so hot that the chicken is boiling or the sauce is burning on the bottom of the pan. You can check for that by scraping the cooking surface with your cooking spoon and seeing if you get any solids accumulating.) - - During this first part of the simmer, you'll want to start the knifework for your Garlic Yellow Rice. (Link to that recipe is above.)
6. After 20 minutes, flip the chicken pieces, turn the heat down to medium low, and simmer, covered, for another 20 minutes or so. About 10 minutes into this second simmer, you'll want to adjust seasoning if needed. - - At this point, you'll be able to move on to the cooking part of the Garlic Yellow Rice.
7. After the second simmer, stir in your peas, then cut the heat.
8. Once the rice is done, plate the rice, topped with a piece or two of chicken and a healthy drizzle of the sauce.
9. If you made the quickled onions to go with, put a little of those on top and garnish with a bit of chopped cilantro if you like. - - Enjoy! :)
