Sunshine Chicken

Ingredients

2-3 teaspoons curry powder
1 1/4 teaspoons salt, divided
1/4 teaspoon pepper
6 (5-ounce) chicken breast halves, boneless and skinless
1 1/2 cups orange juice
1 cup long-grain rice
3/4 cup water
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 teaspoon ground mustard
fresh parsley, chopped, optional, for topping

Directions

Combine the curry powder, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and the pepper.

Rub the curry powder mixture over the chicken.

In a skillet over medium heat on the stove top, combine the orange juice, rice, water, brown sugar, mustard, and the remaining salt.

Add the chicken pieces to the skillet. Bring the mixture to a boil.

Reduce the heat and cover the skillet.

Let the mixture simmer until the chicken juices run clear and a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part reads 165 degrees F.

Remove the skillet from the heat and let stand, covered, until all the liquid is absorbed, for about 5 minutes.

Top with parsley and serve!
