Chicken Margarita Saffron Yellow Rice Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• Bring water and chicken bouillon to a boil in a large skillet. Add chicken breasts and bell pepper; simmer over medium heat until chicken is no longer pink in the center, about 20 minutes. Remove chicken and pour remaining broth into a 9x13-inch baking dish.
• Stir rice, plus the included seasoning packet, and olive oil into broth. Arrange chicken breast over rice and season with black pepper and poultry seasoning.
• Bake in the preheated oven until liquid is absorbed and rice is tender, about 45 minutes. Fluff rice with a fork before serving.

Steps:

• Combine onion, olive oil, and garlic in a large pot over medium heat. Cook and stir for 2 minutes. Add chicken breasts; cook until lightly browned, about 2 minutes per side. Pour in water; bring to a boil.
• Pour yellow rice into the boiling water. Cover and simmer over medium heat until chicken and rice are tender, about 20 minutes. Sprinkle frozen peas on top; cook until thawed, about 2 minutes. Mix up rice.

Steps:

• For the rice: Sprinkle the saffron on the ice cubes in a small bowl and let sit at room temperature until the ice is completely melted, about 1 hour. This is your bloomed saffron.
• Meanwhile, rinse the rice a few times until the water runs clean.
• Melt the butter in a 3-quart saucepan over medium heat. Add half the onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft and golden, about 5 minutes. Add the rice and 1 teaspoon salt and stir to combine. Add 3 1/4 cups water and the bloomed saffron, then turn the heat to medium high.
• Bring the liquid to a boil, then lower the heat to medium. Cover the pan and cook until the liquid is absorbed and the rice is tender, 15 to 20 minutes.
• For the topping: Meanwhile, melt the butter in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Add the onions and fry, stirring occasionally, until golden brown, about 15 minutes. Add the raisins and cook, stirring occasionally, until warmed and slightly softened, about 2 minutes (see Cook's Note). Set aside.
• When the rice is ready, remove from the heat and let sit for 5 minutes so it can finish steaming. Fluff with a fork and transfer to a serving plate. Top with the onion and raisin mixture and serve.

Steps:

• Fill a large pot with water. Add garlic powder, salt, pepper and chicken. Boil for approximately 25 minutes or until done.
• Remove chicken from the pot (save the broth it was cooked in) and remove the meat from the bone. Discard skin and bones.
• While chicken is cooking, prepare yellow rice according to package directions. Add chicken and cream of chicken soup. Stir in about 2 to 3 cups of the chicken broth to get a good creamy consistency. Cover and heat through for just a few minutes before serving.
