Directions
Heat some oil in a skillet over medium-high heat, then add the chicken pieces. Let them brown nicely on all sides. Once the chicken has a good color, toss in the onions and cook for another couple of minutes until they start to soften. Next, add the mixed vegetables, the UNCLE BEN'S® Flavor Infusions Chicken & Herb Rice, and water. Bring everything to a boil, then lower the heat to medium. Cover the pan and let it simmer for about 15 minutes, or until the water has been absorbed and the rice is tender. Once it’s all cooked through, give it a good stir and serve. Enjoy!
How To Serve It Best
Serve with a side of roasted vegetables or a light salad to keep the meal balanced. A crusty bread or fluffy rice also pairs well to soak up the flavorful juices. A chilled white wine complements the herbs beautifully.
Storage Advice
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. Reheat gently to avoid drying out the chicken. You can also freeze cooked portions for up to two months, just thaw overnight before reheating.
