1. Cook the rice in standard form, maybe stirring in some seasonings. As for the chicken, baked is usually a rather low-fat way to do it. Try baking a chicken breast covered with some light Italian salad dressing at 400 for 15-20 minutes.
2. Sprinkle your chicken breast with some garlic powder and squeeze some lemon (or orange) over it. You could add a little of the peel too. Bake and serve withe the white rice. Cook your rice in chicken stock so it will add more flavor
3. Cook your rice and chicken..add a can of low fat low sodium cream of chicken soup mix in some fat free sour cream for a creamier taste
4. My daughter re-wrote her own version of an old french dish that makes your chicken taste so moist and flavor rich you won't miss the fat. Baked Chicken with Garlic You take two or three boneless, skinless breasts, and cut each split breast in half making 6 generous pieces. Take the pieces and layer them in a covered baking dish, starting and ending with a little chicken broth. On each layer sprinkle lightly salt, pepper and nutmeg, and a hand full of whole peeled garlic cloves. You'll need about 20 to 30 cloves of peeled garlic all together. Don't Worry! the whole cloves roast up soft and sweet and they are awesome spread on french bread (no butter!). Bake tightly covered in a slo-oven 300 degree Farenheit oven for an hour at least before you check for doneness. Mean while cook your rice and serve with the broth from the dish, If you wish you can process the soft garlic and add to the broth to thicken it a little.
5. Place chicken breasts in a roasting pot and season with pepper (NO SALT- the chicken base you add later is salty). You can also add chopped up carrots. Fill 1/4 of the way with water. Add enough chicken base so that the water is visibly yellow. Cook until the chicken is done. Add some minute rice - probably about 2 cups at least. Let sit for a few minutes. If rice is still too watery, you should add more, until when rice is fluffy, there is no excess water in the pot.
