• Melt butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Cook rice and vermicelli in hot butter until browned, about 3 minutes.
• Pour water over the rice mixture. Stir chicken bouillon, parsley, garlic powder, and onion powder into the water; bring to a boil, place a cover on the saucepan, reduce heat to low, and cook until the water has absorbed into the rice and pasta, about 25 minutes.

Steps:

• Cook the vermicelli in boiling, salted water until al dente, about 5 minutes. Drain.
• Place the chicken between sheets of plastic wrap and pound lightly to an even thickness, about 1/3 inch.
• Heat a large, deep skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil.
• Spread the flour on a large plate and dredge the chicken in it, shaking off excess.
• Place the chicken in the skillet and season with salt and pepper. Cook until golden on the bottom, 5-6 minutes.
• Turn and cook until golden on the other side and just cooked through, 4-5 minutes longer, depending on thickness. Transfer to a plate.
• Add the shallot and wine to the pan and cook, scraping up browned bits, 2 minutes.
• Add the broth, milk, Parmesan cheese, and cream cheese and cook, stirring gently to melt the cheeses, until the sauce is creamy and slightly thick, 6-7 minutes. Stir in 2 tablespoons of chopped parsley and season with salt and pepper.
