Marinate the Chicken:
Place Sadia Marinated Chicken Breast Cubes in a large bowl.
Add olive oil, dried thyme, minced garlic, lemon juice, lemon zest, and ½ tsp of salt.

Bake the Chicken:

Bake for 20-25 minutes or until fully cooked. Alternatively, cook in a pan or air fryer as per your preference.
Prepare the Vegetable Rice:
Drain the soaked rice thoroughly. In a large pot, melt butter over medium-high heat.

Cover and cook for 20 minutes until the water is absorbed and the rice is tender.
