A delightful explosion of flavor, blending tender chicken breast seasoned with adobo, vibrant saffron rice, and a creamy queso sauce.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 lbs chicken breast (seasoned with adobo)
  • 10 oz saffron yellow rice (prepare according to package instructions)
  • 2.5 cups water (for cooking the rice)
  • 1 cube tomato bouillon (for flavoring the rice)
  • 3 oz white queso (melted for sauce)
  • 2 tbsp milk (to make the sauce creamy)
  • 2 tsp olive oil (for frying the chicken)
  • Cooking spray (for greasing the skillet)
  • 1 tsp adobo seasoning (to season the chicken)

Instructions

  1. Start by washing your chicken breast and patting it dry with a paper towel. Season it generously with adobo seasoning, ensuring every inch is covered with that robust flavor. Let it sit for a few minutes to absorb the spices.
  2. In a skillet, heat 2 teaspoons of olive oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the seasoned chicken breast. Cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side or until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and is golden brown. Remove it from the skillet and let it rest to keep the juices locked in.
  3. While the chicken is cooking, prepare the saffron yellow rice. In a medium saucepan, combine 2.5 cups of water, the rice, and the tomato bouillon cube. Bring it to a boil, then cover and simmer for about 20 minutes or until the rice is fluffy and the water is absorbed.
  4. In a small saucepan, melt 3 oz of white queso over low heat. Stir in 2 tablespoons of milk to add creaminess to the sauce, combining until smooth. Remove from heat once it’s fully melted and creamy.
  5. Slice the chicken into strips and serve it over a bed of saffron rice. Drizzle the creamy queso sauce generously on top, and voilà! You have a plate full of Crazy Chicken goodness.

Notes

Crazy Chicken pairs beautifully with a fresh green salad, roasted veggies, or tortilla chips on the side. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
