Cooking Steps
Before starting, preheat the oven to 450˚F. Add 1 cup (2 cups) water and 1/8 tsp (1/4 tsp) salt to a medium pot. Cover and bring to a boil over high heat. Wash and dry all produce. Stir 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter and rice into the pot of boiling water.Reduce heat to medium-low. Cover and cook until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed, 18-20 min. Remove the pot from heat. Set aside, still covered.
Meanwhile, heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat.When hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter, then swirl the pan until melted.Add panko. Toast, stirring often, until golden, 1 min. Transfer panko to a small bowl. Carefully wipe the pan clean.Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.Stir together brown sugar and Dijon in another small bowl. Set aside.
Pat chicken dry with paper towels, then season with half the chicken salt and pepper.Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat. When hot, add 1/2 tbsp oil (dbl for 4 ppl), then chicken. Cook until golden-brown, 2-3 min per side. (NOTE: It's okay if it doesn't cook all the way through in this step.) Remove the pan from heat. Transfer chicken to the prepared baking sheet.
Spread half the Dijon mixture on top of chicken.Top with panko.Bake in the middle of the oven until chicken is cooked through, 12-14 min.**
Meanwhile, peel, then cut carrot into 1/4-inch half-moons.Reduce heat to medium.Add carrots and 1/4 cup (1/2 cup) water to the same pan (from step 3). Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until carrots soften, 2-3 min. Add peas.

Review summary
Updated on Feb 2026- Flavor: Many enjoyed the Dijon and brown sugar combination on the chicken, though some found it too sweet or mustardy.
- Ease of prep: Simple to make, but some found the timing off for rice and vegetables; consider adjusting cook times.
- Suggestions: Double the Dijon-brown sugar mixture for more coverage; add extra vegetables for a more balanced meal.
- Portions: Several noted small vegetable portions; consider increasing carrots and peas for a heartier side dish.
- Texture: Toast panko in butter for extra crunch; ensure wild rice is fully cooked for the best texture.
