Ingredients

Scale

Main ingredients

  • 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken thighs or breasts (cut into bite-sized pieces)
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 0.5 tsp smoked paprika
  • 0 salt and pepper (to taste)
  • 1 cup long-grain rice (basmati or jasmine recommended)
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 1 cup mixed vegetables (frozen or fresh (peas, carrots, corn))
  • 0.5 cup BBQ sauce (your favorite kind)
  • 0.25 cup honey
  • 0 green onions or parsley (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Cut chicken into bite-sized pieces. In a bowl, season chicken with garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat.
  2. In an oven-safe skillet or Dutch oven, combine the seasoned chicken, uncooked rice, chicken broth, and mixed vegetables.
  3. Pour in the BBQ sauce and honey. Stir everything together well to coat all ingredients.
  4. Place the skillet over medium-high heat on the stovetop and bring to a gentle simmer.
  5. Transfer the skillet to a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C).
  6. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the rice is cooked through and tender, and the chicken is completely cooked. The liquid should be mostly absorbed.
  7. Garnish with fresh chopped green onions or parsley before serving.

Notes

Allow the dish to rest for about 5 minutes before serving for flavors to meld. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days.
