- 1 cup basmati rice
- 1 onion, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1 cup frozen peas
- Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions:
- In a large skillet or pot, heat some oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook until browned on all sides. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
