Method

1.Place the stock and water in medium saucepan. Bring to the boil then cover and reduce heat to a simmer.
2.Meanwhile, heat half the butter in large saucepan; cook the tenderloins until browned on both sides and just cooked through. Add the garlic, juice and oregano. Cook, stirring, until almost all the liquid has evaporated. Remove the chicken from pan; cover to keep warm.
3.Melt the remaining butter in the same pan, cook the onion, stirring, until soft. Add the rice, stir to coat in the butter mixture. Add the hot stock mixture in 1/2 cup (125ml) batches to the rice. Cook, stirring, over a medium heat until stock mixture is absorbed after each addition. Total cooking time should be about 25 minutes or until the rice is just tender. After 20 minutes, stir in peas.
4.Add rind, cheese, salt and pepper to taste; cook, stirring, until hot. Serve rice topped with chicken and extra parmesan flakes , if desired.
