Ingredients
Scale
- 3 tablespoons of unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil
- 1 small yellow onion (finely diced)
- 12 ounces of chicken breasts (cut into cubes)
- ½ teaspoon of garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon of sweet paprika
- ¼ teaspoon of onion powder
- 8 ounces of fresh mushrooms (thinly sliced)
- Salt (adjusted to preference)
- Freshly ground black pepper (adjusted to preference)
- 3 cloves of garlic (minced)
- 1¼ cups of long grain white rice
- 3 cups of low sodium chicken broth
- Grated Parmesan cheese (for garnishing)
- Fresh parsley (chopped, for garnishing)
Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat the Oven: Initiate by preheating the oven to a temperature of 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Step 2: Prepare the Cooking Vessel: In a large oven-safe skillet, combine the butter and olive oil. Place over a medium-high heat until the butter has melted completely.
- Step 3: Sauté Onions: Introduce the diced onions to the skillet and sauté for approximately 2 minutes, or until they become translucent.
- Step 4: Season the Chicken: In a separate dish, season the diced chicken breasts with garlic powder, sweet paprika, and onion powder.
- Step 5: Cook the Chicken: Transfer the seasoned chicken to the skillet and cook for about 5 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is golden brown on all sides.
- Step 6: Incorporate Mushrooms: Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet, season with salt and pepper to taste, and continue to cook for an additional 4 minutes, stirring frequently, until the mushrooms are soft and fully cooked.
- Step 7: Add Garlic: Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another minute until aromatic.
- Step 8: Introduce Rice: Incorporate the rice into the skillet, stirring constantly, and cook for 1 minute to lightly toast the grains.
- Step 9: Add Broth and Bake: Pour in the chicken broth, increase the heat to high and bring the mixture to a boil. Once boiling, remove from the stove, cover the skillet with a lid, and place it in the preheated oven. Bake for 30 minutes.
- Step 10: Final Cooking Stage: After the initial baking period, remove the lid and continue to bake for an additional 3 minutes or until the liquid has been fully absorbed by the rice.
- Step 11: Rest and Serve: Remove the skillet from the oven and allow the dish to stand for 5 minutes. Just before serving, garnish with grated Parmesan cheese and chopped fresh parsley.
