Ingredients

1 Lb Chicken Breasts - Cubed
1 Cup Frozen Peas
1 Small Onion - Diced
2 Cloves Garlic - Minced
1 Tbsp Olive Oil
1 Tbsp Butter
1/2 Cup Milk (or Half & Half Cream)
2 Cups Chicken Broth
1 Tsp Black Pepper - To Taste
1 Packet Ben's Roasted Chicken & Wild Rice

Directions

1. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook for 5–7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until cooked through. Transfer to a plate.
Reduce the heat to medium. Melt the butter in the skillet and cook the onion for 3 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds.
Add the rice, its seasoning packet, and the chicken broth. Bring to a boil, then cover and simmer according to the rice package directions, until the rice is tender. Add a splash of water if the pan gets dry.
Stir in the peas, milk, and cooked chicken. Cover and cook for another 3–5 minutes, until everything is hot and the sauce is creamy. Season with black pepper.
If your rice package calls for a different amount of liquid, use the package amount of broth in step 3.
