Servings: 2

Ingredients

  • 2 chicken breasts

    (butterflied (cut open like a book))

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

  • 1/2 yellow or red onion

    (diced)

  • 1/2 bell peppers

    (diced)

  • 1 cup rice

    ((cooked, use a rice cooker or easy rice for simplicity))

  • 1 cup broccoli

    (steamed or sauteed)

  • 1 tablespoon lawry's seasoning salt

  • salt and pepper to taste

  • 1 tablespoon sweet heat seasoning

Recipe Instructions

Step 1:

Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).

(5-10 minutes.)

Step 2:

Prepare the chicken breasts: Butterfly the chicken breasts by cutting each one in half horizontally to make them thinner and ensure even cooking.

Tip: Butterflying the chicken allows it to cook quickly and evenly.

Step 3:

Rub the chicken breasts with oil and season generously with Lawry's seasoning, salt, pepper, and sweet heat seasoning.

Tip: For extra flavor, let the chicken sit for a few minutes after seasoning before baking.

Step 4:

Place the seasoned chicken breasts on a baking sheet and bake for 17 minutes, or until the chicken reaches a safe internal temperature (165°F or 75°C).

(17 min)

Tip: Check the chicken with a meat thermometer to ensure it’s fully cooked.

Step 5:

While the chicken bakes, cook the rice in a rice cooker or use your preferred method (easy rice works great)

(15-20 minutes (depending on rice type))

Step 6:

Steam or sauté the broccoli: Steam the broccoli until tender (about 5-7 minutes), or sauté it in a little oil over medium heat for 4-5 minutes until crisp-tender.

(5-7 minutes for steaming, 4-5 minutes for sautéing.)

Step 7:

Sauté the vegetables: In a skillet, heat a little oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and bell pepper, and cook until softened

(about 3-4 minutes)

Tip: Stir occasionally to avoid burning the onions and peppers.

Step 8:

Once the chicken is done baking, remove it from the oven, and let it rest for a 5-10 minutes. Then, cut the chicken into bite-sized pieces.

(10 min)

Tip: Letting the chicken rest ensures the juices redistribute, keeping it moist.

Step 9:

Assemble the bowl: In a bowl, layer the rice, sautéed onions and peppers, steamed or sautéed broccoli, and the cut-up chicken.

Step 10:

Top with your choice of toppings: Add guacamole, sour cream, hot sauce, and shredded cheese (or any other optional toppings you like).
