Notes

Cover the baking dish tightly. Covering the dish helps to trap the steam to make sure the rice fully cooks.

Don't peak! Don't uncover the dish during cooking. This will release the steam and could prevent the rice from cooking.

Check the temperature. Make sure to check the chicken's internal temperature to ensure it is fully cooked. It should reach at least 165 degrees F.

Let it rest. I recommend letting it rest 5 minutes before serving. This lets the rice finish absorbing any liquid.
