  1. Step 1Cook chicken and onion

    In a large skillet over medium heat, cook diced chicken and chopped onion until the chicken is cooked through and onions are softened, about 8-10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

    Add the rice to the pan with chicken and pour in enough water or broth to cook the rice according to package directions. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed, about 15-18 minutes.

    Check your rice package for the exact water-to-rice ratio needed.
