Ingredients:
- 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, thinly sliced
- 1 cup long-grain white rice
- 1 tablespoon olive oil

Instructions:
- Heat the pan: Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

- Simmer and cook: Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the chicken is cooked through.
