One-Pan Bold Honey BBQ Chicken Rice that everyone will love.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 pieces Chicken Thighs or Breasts (Substitute with pork or tofu if desired.)
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder (Fresh garlic can be used for a brighter taste.)
  • 1 teaspoon Onion Powder (Opt for fresh onions sautéed first if desired.)
  • 1 teaspoon Smoked Paprika (Regular paprika can be used for a lighter flavor.)
  • to taste Salt
  • to taste Pepper
  • 1 cup BBQ Sauce (Use your favorite brand or homemade.)
  • 1/4 cup Honey (Maple syrup can also be used.)
  • 1 cup Long-Grain Rice (High-quality rice ensures even cooking.)
  • 2 cups Chicken Broth (Use vegetable broth for a vegetarian option.)
  • 2 cups Mixed Vegetables (Choose your favorites or what’s in season.)

Instructions

  1. Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Season the chicken with garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Sear each side for about 5 minutes until golden brown.
  2. Combine BBQ sauce and honey in a separate bowl. Pour the mixture over the seared chicken and let it bubble gently for about 2 minutes.
  3. Stir in long-grain rice and pour in chicken broth, ensuring rice is submerged and chicken is nestled underneath.
  4. Bring to a gentle simmer, cover, and reduce heat to low. Cook undisturbed for about 20 minutes or until rice is tender.
  5. Layer mixed vegetables on top for the last 5 minutes of cooking, covering to steam them perfectly.
  6. Remove from heat and let rest for 5 minutes with lid on. Fluff the rice with a fork before serving.
