Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 pound chicken breast Fresh chicken breasts that are pink and free from blemishes
  • 2 cups mixed vegetables (such as bell peppers, carrots, and zucchini) Vibrant and firm vegetables for best flavor
  • 1 cup rice Can be substituted with quinoa for a gluten-free option
  • 2 cups chicken broth Keeps the rice moist and flavorful
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil For sautéing
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder Enhances flavor
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder Enhances flavor
  • to taste Salt and pepper For seasoning
  • to taste Fresh herbs (optional) For garnish

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Heat the olive oil in a large pan over medium heat until it shimmers slightly.
  2. Sprinkle garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper over the chicken breast. Sear the chicken in the pan for about 6-7 minutes on each side until golden brown.
  3. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside to keep the flavors intact.
  4. In the same pan, add the mixed vegetables and sauté for about 5 minutes until they soften but retain some crunch.
  5. Add rice and chicken broth to the pan, stirring to combine well.
  6. Return the seared chicken to the pan, nestling it into the rice and vegetables.
  7. Increase heat to bring the mixture to a boil. Once boiling, reduce heat to low, cover the pan with a lid to trap steam.
  8. Let it simmer for about 20 minutes, or until the rice is tender and chicken is cooked through.
  9. If desired, garnish with fresh herbs before serving.
