Ingredients
- 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
- 2 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 1/2 pound chicken tenders
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 1/2 onion (minced)
- 2-3 tablespoons garlic (minced)
- 1/2 cup dry white wine
- 1 1/2 cups uncooked long grain white rice (I use jasmine)
- 1/2 cup parmesan cheese (divided)
- 2 cups chicken broth (low sodium)
- Fresh chopped parsley
Instructions
- In a small bowl add the chili powder, paprika, oregano, garlic powder, onion powder, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper and mix until combined.
- Sprinkle the seasoning on both sides of the chicken tenders and set aside.
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet on medium high heat and add the chicken tenders. Cooke 5-6 minutes flip and cook another 3-4 minutes. Remove to a plate and cover with aluminium foil to keep warm.
- Reduce the heat to medium and add the butter, diced onion and garlic cook for 2-3 minutes just to soften.
- Add in the white wine and let simmer for 5 minutes until it reduces a bit, scraping the bits of flavor from the bottom of the pan.
- Add in the uncooked white rice, 1/4 cup of the parmesan cheese, and chicken stock and stir until combined. Bring mixture to a low boil and reduce heat to low, cover and let cook 20 minutes.
- Remove the lid and if the rice isn't tender and water until fully absorbed place the lid back on for another 5 minutes.
- Fluff rice with a fork and add the cooked chicken tenders on top and the remaining parmesan cheese and chopped fresh parsley. Serve!
