One-pot Chicken Rice - Butterfingers Kitchen

Everyone has had those lazy days when cooking is the last thing you want to do. I am no exception. This lazy one-pot chicken rice is my go-to recipe whenever I don't feel like spending too much time cooking and washing dishes. 

It's so easy, yet still delicious. Put those instant noodles/frozen meals away and make yourself some of this piping hot chicken rice ;)
