1. Prepare the Chicken: Cut the chicken breasts into bite-sized cubes. Season with garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
2. Heat the Oil: In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat.
3. Cook the Chicken: Add the seasoned chicken to the skillet. Cook for about 5-7 minutes until the chicken is browned and cooked through.

7. Finish Cooking: Cover again and cook for an additional 5 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed.
8. Fluff and Serve: Remove from heat and let sit for a few minutes. Fluff the rice with a fork and garnish with fresh parsley if desired.
9. Portion: Divide the meal into meal prep containers for easy lunches or dinners throughout the week.
