– Fresh parsley, for garnish (optional)


Instructions

Creating One-Pan Bold Honey BBQ Chicken Rice is simple if you follow these steps:

1. Prep Your Ingredients: Begin by chopping the bell peppers and dicing the onion. Set aside.
2. Heat the Pan: In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat.
3. Sear the Chicken: Season the chicken thighs with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Add them to the skillet and sear for about 4-5 minutes on each side until browned. Remove the chicken and set aside.
4. Sauté the Vegetables: In the same skillet, add the diced onions and chopped bell peppers. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes until they begin to soften.
5. Add Rice: Stir in the long-grain rice, ensuring it is well-coated with the oil and vegetable mixture.
6. Pour in the Broth and Sauce: Add the chicken broth and honey BBQ sauce to the skillet. Stir well to combine.
7. Nestle the Chicken: Place the seared chicken thighs back into the skillet, ensuring they are submerged in the sauce.
8. Cover and Cook: Cover the skillet with a lid and reduce the heat to low. Let it simmer for about 20 minutes or until the rice is cooked and has absorbed the liquid.
9. Fluff and Garnish: Once cooked, fluff the rice with a fork and garnish with fresh parsley if desired.
10. Serve: Plate the One-Pan Bold Honey BBQ Chicken Rice and enjoy!
