Place a quarter cup of Greek dressing in a Ziploc bag. Place the boneless skinless chicken breast to the bag, mix well, seal bag, and refrigerate for 2-12 hours before cooking.

When you’re ready to cook dinner, preheat the oven to 350°F.

Using a 9 x 13 glass baking dish place the Minute Rice, water, olive oil, and chicken bouillon paste inside the dash. Mix together until incorporated and bouillon dissolves.
