First you will need to thaw your chicken beforehand. I use a ziploc bag to put the frozen chicken into and then thaw in my sink.

While the chicken thaws, you can make some brown rice for it to go on. First get a pot to cook the rice in ;)

Now you can add some onion, garlic powder, salt and butter to flavor the rice.

When it starts to boil, reduce the heat and put a lid on. Set a timer for 50 minutes. After the timer goes off, leave the lid on for 10 more minutes, then it will be ready.

I turned my heat down to between the 2 and 3 to simmer it somewhat ;)

After stirring it in, this is how it looks. You can add peanuts if you like. I didn't have any this time, but I have before and it's also good that way. ;)
