Savory Delights: Chicken Fillet with Rice Recipe

6. Reintroduce the Chicken

While the rice is finishing up, slice the cooked chicken fillets into strips or pieces, depending on your preference. Once the rice is cooked and the peas are ready, gently stir the chicken back into the pan with the rice, mixing it all together.

7. Serve and Garnish

Once everything is combined and heated through, remove the skillet from the heat. Garnish with fresh parsley or cilantro for a pop of color and extra freshness. Serve immediately.
