Step 1

1. Start by adding your chopped chicken to a large mixing bowl, along with 2 Tbsp corn starch, 1 Tbsp olive oil, 1 Tbsp garlic powder, 1/2 Tbsp onion powder, 1 tsp paprika, and a little salt and pepper. Mix to coat.

Step 2

2. Heat a large deep skillet or rice pot over medium-high heat and add in your chicken. Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side or until your chicken is cooked through and is browned on the outside. When done, remove from the skillet and set aside.

Step 3

3. In that same pot/skillet, melt 2 Tbsp of butter, then add in your chopped onions and cook for 2-3 minutes, then add in your garlic and cook for another 30 seconds.

Step 4

4. Next, add your chopped spinach in with your onions, mix and cook for 1-2 minutes or until your spinach starts to wilt.

Step 5

5. Once your spinach cooks down a little, add in 1.5 cups of white rice, mix everything together, and cook for 2-3 minutes.

Step 6

6. Add in 2 cups of chicken broth, 1 cup milk, 1/2 tsp rosemary, and mix together. Let this continue to cook until it starts to boil. Once it starts boiling, reduce the heat to medium-low, cover, and cook for about 15 minutes, stirring halfway through to keep it from sticking to the bottom.

Step 7

7. Once your rice is cooked through, turn off the heat and add in your cooked chicken and 1 cup of grated parmesan cheese. Mix everything together really well.

Step 8

8. Give it a taste and add salt and pepper to preference.
