Cover and cook 30 minutes in the preheated oven. Pierce chicken breasts with a fork. Continue cooking 30 minutes. Enjoy!

"I am so sorry but this recipie is really bad. Imagine all the cumin and tyme for only four cooked cups rice, then imagine six bland chicken breasts baked on top. Thats exactly what is is and what it..." See more tastes like! It was really strong rice with bland chicken. I decided to make this because it seemed a lot healthier than other chicken and rice dishes, but I was so disappointed. To make matters worse I had a friend over to eat that night, and when I offered to put frozen pizza in for her instead she accepted!"

"If only it tasted as good as it smells. It's very bland and definitely missing something. If I were to make it again, and I doubt I will, I would probably cut the cumin in half and add some garlic...." See more"
