Instructions:
Now, let’s dive into the step-by-step process of creating this delicious Chicken with Garlic Parmesan Rice.
Step 1: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. While the oil is heating, season the chicken tenders with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Place the seasoned chicken into the skillet and sear them until they are beautifully browned and thoroughly cooked. Set aside when done.
Step 2: In the same skillet, add the butter, minced garlic, red pepper flakes, and half a teaspoon of salt. Sauté these ingredients over medium heat for a few minutes. Adjust the heat to medium-high, and then pour in the white wine. Cook for approximately 5 minutes, stirring constantly. Reserve 3 tablespoons of the pan sauce for later.
Step 3: In the remaining buttery sauce in the skillet, add the uncooked rice and stir it well. Pour in the chicken broth and season with the remaining half teaspoon of salt. Bring the mixture to a low boil. Once it’s boiling, adjust the heat to medium-low, cover with a lid, and simmer for about 20 minutes or until the rice is tender, stirring occasionally.
Step 4: Sprinkle the Parmesan cheese on top of the rice and arrange the seared chicken tenders. Replace the lid and take the skillet off the heat. Allow the dish to stand for about 5 minutes to let the flavors meld.
Step 5: Just before serving, drizzle the reserved pan sauce on top of the chicken for an extra burst of flavor. Garnish with some fresh parsley, and you’re ready to enjoy this exquisite Chicken with Garlic Parmesan Rice.
