One Pot Cajun Chicken And Rice
  1. Rub olive oil all over chicken. Season with Cajun seasoning all over.

  2. In a large skillet over medium heat, melt butter. Once the butter is just melted, stir in the honey.

  3. Add chicken to the pan and brown for 1-2 minutes on each side. Transfer to a plate and set aside.

  4. Add celery, bell peppers, and garlic to the pan and saute for 1 minute (there should be enough oil/butter left in the pan from the chicken but if not you can add 1 tablespoon of butter if needed).

  5. Stir in rice, cajun seasoning, and broth. Bring to a boil.

  6. Reduce heat to a simmer (medium-low), return chicken to pan (place on top of rice), cover, and cook for 15-20 minutes until chicken is cooked through and rice is tender.

  7. Fluff rice with a fork and serve chicken and rice with a scoop of mangoes (or alternate option, see notes), fresh cilantro, and lime wedges for squeezing.
