Ingredients
 

Step 1 Ingredients:

  • lbs Chicken tenderloins (raw, skinless/non breaded)
  • 2 tbsp Butter
  • Salt and pepper for seasoning
  • 1/2 tsp Paprika

Step 2 Ingredients:

  • 1/4 cup Butter
  • 1/2 cup Diced onions
  • 4 cloves Garlic
  • 1/2 tsp Sea salt

Step 3 Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup Pinot grigio
  • cups Jasmine rice
  • cups Chicken broth
  • Parmesan cheese, freshly shredded

Instructions
 

Step 1

  • Season chicken tenderloins with salt, pepper, and paprika.
  • In a large cast iron skillet, heat butter over medium heat. Add chicken tenderloins and cook to sear both sides of chicken. Approximately 5 minutes each side.
  • Remove chicken from skillet and set aside on a plate tented with foil.

Step 2

  • Melt the butter in the skillet and add onions. Sauté onions until soft and translucent.
  • Add garlic and sea salt and continue to sauté for about 1 minute.

Step 3

  • Deglaze the pan with pinot grigio, scraping the brown bits from the bottom of the skillet. Stirring frequently, allow to simmer and reduce to half.
  • Add the rice to reduced glaze and stir to coat rice. Allow the rice to soak some of the garlic butter glaze for about 1 minute.
  • Add the chicken broth and stir. Cover and simmer on low for 10 minutes.
  • Stir the rice and return chicken tenderloins to pan.
  • Cover and allow to continue to cook rice for 5 more minutes. Liquid should be completely absorbed by the rice.
  • Shred parmesan cheese over the top of chicken and rice and cover the pan again. Take off the heat and allow cheese to melt.
  • Allow the parmesan chicken and rice to cool slightly for 5 minutes before serving.
