Ingredients
Chicken
- 2 cups water
- 1 (6 oz. box) long grain wild rice mix (contains seasoning)
- 1 Tablespoon butter (or olive oil)
- 4 small boneless skinless chicken breasts
- 1 Tablespoon everything bagel seasoning
Honey Mustard Sauce
- ½ cup mayonnaise
- ½ Tablespoon stone ground mustard
- 1 Tablespoon honey
- ⅛ teaspoon Texas Pete Dust (or a dash of cayenne pepper)
- ⅛ teaspoon garlic powder
Instructions
Chicken
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- In a large dutch oven or 13 x 9 inch baking dish, add 2 cups of water, then stir in seasoning packet with rice.
- Add butter or olive oil.
- Arrange raw chicken breasts on top of uncooked rice and water.
- Sprinkle chicken with bagel seasoning.
- Close lid on dutch oven or tightly cover 13 x 9 inch baking dish with aluminum foil.
- Bake in oven at 350 degrees for 50 minutes until rice and chicken are cooked throughout. Don't peek until time is up!
- Open lid and fluff rice. Serve chicken over rice and spoon honey mustard sauce over chicken.
Honey Mustard Sauce
- Mix mayonnaise, mustard, honey, Texas Pete dust and garlic powder together in a small bowl.
- Drizzle honey mustard sauce over warm chicken before serving.
Notes
- Keep lid or foil closed on pot or dish until cooking time is over or steam will escape. This can change the quality of the dish.
- If you can't find Texas Pete Dust at your local grocery store, use cayenne pepper instead, but only use a small dash because it's stronger. It's also fine to leave it out completely if you don't like spicy food.
- If using larger chicken breasts, you may need more water and a longer baking time. Adjust time accordingly since all ovens are different.
- Serve Dutch Oven Chicken and Rice with Maple Bourbon Glazed Carrots shown in the photograph. It's the perfect match!
