Steps

1

First, prep your chicken breast and cut into small bite size pieces. Set to the side.
2

Add oil, easy onion and minced garlic to electric skillet, keep skillet on low heat, 200 F.
3

Add chicken breast to skillet, and top with generous amount of paprika, salt, pepper, garlic powder and onion powder to the chicken. Flip pieces over, and re-season the other side while it browns.
4

Add chicken broth into electric skillet, and let simmer on low heat, 200 F for at least an hour, but you can do longer. I typically let it simmer for about 1.5-2 hours.
5

Cut up baby carrots if you prefer then smaller, and add your carrots. Cover, and let simmer for at least 30 minutes, but can do longer. I typically let simmer for 1 hour.
6

Add broccoli florets, cover, let simmer for an additional 10-30 minutes, depending on how crunchy you like your broccoli. I typically do about 15/20 minutes.
7

Add your dry brown rice into the mixture and cover. You should still have enough liquid left over that the rice will absorb, but if not you can add more chicken broth, or chicken boullion/water if you need more liquid. Let sit for at least 20 minutes so the rice will be soft, but you can let this sit for as long as you need until the texture of rice is to your desired standard.
8

Mix everything around to make sure the liquid has been soaked up by the rice, serve and enjoy!
