Instructions
Creating Honey BBQ Chicken Rice is as easy as following these simple steps:
1. Prepare the Chicken: Cut the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces. Season with salt and pepper.
2. Heat the Oil: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
3. Cook the Chicken: Add the chicken pieces to the skillet. Cook until they are browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
4. Mix the Sauce: In a bowl, combine the barbecue sauce and honey. Stir well until fully blended.
5. Combine with Chicken: Pour the honey BBQ sauce over the cooked chicken in the skillet. Stir to coat the chicken evenly.
6. Add Rice: Add the rice to the skillet, stirring to mix well with the chicken and sauce.
7. Pour in Broth: Pour the chicken broth over the rice and chicken. Bring to a gentle boil.
8. Simmer: Reduce the heat to low, cover the skillet, and let it simmer for about 20 minutes, or until the rice is tender and has absorbed the liquid.
9. Rest and Fluff: Turn off the heat and let the dish sit covered for 5 minutes. Fluff the rice with a fork before serving.
