Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Pat the whole chicken dry with paper towels. Rub the olive oil all over the chicken, then season generously with garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.

  2. 2

    Roast the Chicken

    Place the chicken in a roasting pan and roast in the preheated oven for about 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Baste the chicken with its own juices halfway through cooking.

  3. 3

    Cook the Rice

    While the chicken is roasting, rinse the rice under cold water until the water runs clear. In a saucepan, combine the rice and chicken broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat, cover, and simmer for about 15-20 minutes or until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed.

  4. 4

    Steam the Broccoli

    In the last 5 minutes of cooking the rice, add the broccoli florets to a steamer basket over boiling water. Cover and steam for about 5 minutes until they are bright green and tender-crisp.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Once the chicken is done, let it rest for 10 minutes before carving. Serve the roasted chicken breast with the rice and steamed broccoli on the side.
