Cajun Chicken & Rice Skillet – A One-pan Flavor Explosion

4.0

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (or thighs)

1 teaspoon olive oil

2 teaspoons Cajun seasoning

2 tablespoons butter

1 tablespoon honey

Fresh cilantro, chopped (for garnish)

1 tablespoon butter (if needed)

1 celery stalk, thinly sliced

1 bell pepper, diced (red preferred)

1 teaspoon minced garlic

1 cup long-grain white rice, uncooked

2 ¼ cups low-sodium chicken broth

1 tablespoon Cajun seasoning

Pat the chicken dry and rub it down with olive oil. Coat both sides evenly with Cajun seasoning.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and melt butter. Stir in the honey for a touch of caramelization. Sear the chicken for 1-2 minutes per side until golden brown, then set aside.
In the same skillet, add celery, bell pepper, and garlic. Sauté for about 1 minute to bring out the flavors. If needed, add another tablespoon of butter to keep everything from sticking.
Stir in uncooked rice, Cajun seasoning, and chicken broth. Bring everything to a boil.
Reduce the heat to medium-low, return the chicken to the skillet, and cover. Cook for 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked and the rice is tender.
Fluff the rice with a fork. Garnish with fresh cilantro. Serve with lime wedges and a scoop of mango salsa if you want to level up the flavor.
