Instructions
- Sizzle Up That Chicken: In a hot skillet with olive oil, cook chicken seasoned with garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Cook until golden and fully done.
- Toss In the Veggies: Add chopped bell peppers, onion, zucchini, and broccoli. Sauté 6–8 minutes until tender-crisp.
- Keep It Saucy: Add a splash of water or chicken broth if needed. Let flavors blend for a few extra minutes.
- Creamy Rice Time: Stir cream and butter into hot rice until smooth and creamy.
- Plate & Devour: Serve stir-fry next to creamy rice. Garnish with herbs if desired. Enjoy!
Methods
This recipe uses the stir-fry method — high heat, fast cooking, and minimal oil — which keeps veggies crisp and meat juicy. Creamy rice is made by folding dairy into hot rice for a rich texture that complements the stir-fry.
Formation
The dish forms through layering of cooked, seasoned chicken, colorful stir-fried vegetables, and the creamy rice base. This balance of texture, color, and flavor makes it a complete and satisfying meal.
