Ingredients
Method
Prepare the Garlic Rice
- In a pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
- Add the rice and salt, stirring to coat the rice in the butter and garlic.
- Pour in the water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 18-20 minutes until rice is cooked.
Cook the Cajun Chicken
- In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the diced chicken and Cajun seasoning, cooking until the chicken is browned and cooked through, about 7-10 minutes.
- Add the diced bell pepper, onion, and minced garlic to the skillet. Sauté for an additional 5 minutes until vegetables are tender.
- Pour in the heavy cream and chicken broth, stirring to combine. Let it simmer for 5-7 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.
Serve
- Fluff the garlic rice with a fork and serve it on plates. Top with the creamy Cajun chicken mixture.
- Garnish with parsley if desired and enjoy your meal!
