Ingredients:
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 cup barbecue sauce
- 1/2 cup water
- 1 cup frozen corn
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 1/2 cups Minute Rice
Instructions:
-
Heat 1 tablespoon of oil: In a large non-stick skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of oil over medium-high heat until shimmering.
-
Cook the chicken: Add the chicken breasts to the skillet and cook for about 5 minutes on each side, or until they’re no longer pink in the center and are nicely browned on the outside.
-
Remove chicken: Once the chicken is cooked through, remove it from the skillet and set it aside.
-
Prepare the sauce: In the same skillet, add 1 cup of water, barbecue sauce, and frozen corn. Stir to combine all the ingredients.
-
Bring to a boil: Increase the heat to high and bring the sauce mixture to a boil, stirring occasionally.
-
Add rice: Once the sauce is boiling, stir in the Minute Rice and sprinkle in the garlic powder. Make sure the rice is evenly distributed throughout the skillet.
-
Top with chicken: Carefully place the cooked chicken breasts on top of the rice mixture in the skillet.
-
Cover and simmer: Reduce the heat to low, cover the skillet with a lid, and let the dish simmer for about 5 minutes. This allows the flavors to meld together and the rice to cook through.
-
Stir and serve: After 5 minutes, remove the lid from the skillet and give everything a good stir to combine. Ensure that the rice is tender and the sauce has thickened slightly.
-
Serve hot: Once everything is heated through and well combined, divide the BBQ Chicken Rice among serving plates and enjoy immediately!
