THE BEST CHICKEN TO USE FOR THIS RECIPE
In theory, you can use any chicken to make this dish, but to keep things simple I prefer to use boneless, skinless chicken breast.
I like to slice mine into about 2-ounce pieces. These make really approachable serving sizes for kids and are easy to stir into the skillet while the rice is simmering.
