Follow The Directions

01

Step

Zest both limes using a microplane or zester. (2 minutes)

02

Step

Juice one lime, reserving the zest and juice separately. (1 minute)

03

Step

In a medium saucepan, combine 2 cups water, Rice Sides™ - Chicken Broccoli Rice, diced chicken, roasted garlic, black pepper, and lime zest. (3 minutes)

04

Step

Bring the mixture to a boil over high heat, then stir well. (5 minutes)

05

Step

Reduce heat to low, cover the saucepan, and simmer for approximately 10 minutes, or until most of the water has been absorbed and the rice is tender. (10 minutes)

06

Step

Gently fluff the rice with a fork. (1 minute)

07

Step

Garnish with slices of creamy avocado, a sprinkle of fresh parsley, and a generous squeeze of fresh lime juice to taste. Serve immediately. (2 minutes)

For an extra layer of flavor, consider browning the chicken in a tablespoon of olive oil before adding it to the rice mixture.
If you don't have roasted garlic on hand, you can substitute with 1 teaspoon of garlic powder, but the flavor won't be quite as rich.
Adjust the amount of lime juice to your liking. Start with a little and add more as needed.
Feel free to add other vegetables, such as bell peppers or corn, to the rice mixture for added nutrition and color.

    The flavors are great. I'd suggest using chicken thighs rather than breast next time as it needs to be simmered for a good amount of time.

  • Clemens Effertz

    The Lime gives it a super fresh taste.

    Quick, flavorful, and a great way to use up leftover roasted chicken.
