Welcome to the channel; introduce the dish and the cooking process.

Prepare the rice by adding it to a cup, then coat it with vegetable oil in a pan over medium heat.

Brown the rice while stirring until it is golden.

Chop the chicken, removing any unwanted fat, and cut it into bite-sized pieces.

Season the chicken with garlic powder, paprika, Weber garlic jalapeno seasoning, onion powder, olive oil, and salt; mix well.

Once the rice is browned, add chopped onions and stir.

Add tomato sauce to the rice to give it color and flavor.

Measure out water using the same cup; for every cup of rice, add two cups of water (for one cup of rice, use two cups of water).

Season the water with garlic powder, cumin, and salt; taste to adjust seasoning as needed.

Bring the mixture to a boil, then cover and reduce the heat to simmer.

Prepare the chicken using a George Foreman electric grill; add oil to the grill and cook the chicken until done.
