This is my favorite chicken dish. The flavor is outstanding and the chicken is moist.
I really had a hard time finding a rice that had good flavor. I found this small bag at the store, brought it home, made rice, and WOW was I hooked.
On the back of one of my bags was this recipe.

How to Make Chicken & Double Jasmine Rice

Add bouillion to tea to dissolve. - Heat a large frying pan over high heat.
Add butter to melt.
Add chicken, in single layer.
Cook 3 to 4 minutes on each side, or until browned.
Remove from pan. - Add onion to same pan. Saute' for 30 seconds. (I add a little more butter and cook onion a little longer)
Mix in rice, pepper, and tea mixture.
Arrange chicken, in single layer, on top.
Bring to a boil.
Reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer 25 minutes, or until liquid is absorbed.
(I use a temp probe @ 180 degrees in the chicken to make sure it is done..Add a little water if needed.) - Remove from heat. Let stand covered for 10 minutes before serving.
I also have used 4 chicken breast.
