A hearty and flavorful chicken bowl recipe that combines tender chicken, fresh vegetables, and a savory sauce for a complete meal.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups cooked rice (white or brown)
  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cubed
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
