About Djuvec
5StarCookies presents djuvec as a popular rice-and-vegetable casserole across Serbia and neighbouring Balkan cuisines. This complete chicken version selects red peppers from the source’s red-or-green option.
Tomatoes, onions and carrots provide the vegetable base, seasoned with salt and black pepper. Oregano also appears in the ingredient list, although its addition point is absent from the written method.
Rice and vegetables form layers around pieces of chicken, with tomatoes above and below. The covered casserole cooks until the rice is done, bringing the components together in one dish.
