Categories     Main Course

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 tsp olive oil
1.5 lbs uncooked boneless skinless chicken breast (cut into small bite size pieces )
1 tsp Goya Adobo Seasoning
1 10 oz pkg Vigo Saffron Yellow Rice (Arroz Amarillo)
1 cube Knorr Tomato Bouillon ((optional))
2½ cups water
3 oz White Queso Dip (*see notes)
2 tbsp milk (skim, 1%, 2%, or whole all work)
cooking spray

Steps:

  • If the chicken seems "wet" pat it dry with a paper towel and then sprinkle with the adobo seasoning and rub it in all over.
  • Heat oil in a large dutch oven or non stick large deep skillet with tight fitting lid over medium heat. Add diced chicken breast and cook on one side for about 3 minutes and then turn and continue to cook for a few minutes.
  • When the chicken is cooked and browned add in the package of rice, crushed up tomato bouillon, and water. Stir and bring to a boil for one minute. Reduce heat to a simmer. Cover and let cook for at least 20 minutes before checking the rice for doneness. It should be done between 20-25 minutes.
  • When rice is cooked add in queso and milk then fluff all together with fork. Serve warm!*see notes about rice cooking*
