Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Rub the chicken breasts with olive oil, and season with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.

  2. 2

    Grill the Chicken

    Place the chicken on the grill and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Remove from grill and let it rest.

  3. 3

    Cook the Rice

    In a medium saucepan, bring 2 cups of water to a boil. Add 1 cup of rice, cover, and reduce the heat to low. Cook for about 15-20 minutes, or until the rice is tender and water is absorbed.

  4. 4

    Make the Cheese Dip

    In a small saucepan, combine cheddar cheese and milk over low heat. Stir until the cheese is melted and the mixture is smooth.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Dish

    On a plate, create a bed of rice, top with grilled chicken, and generously drizzle with cheese dip. Serve hot.
