I like doing most of my cooking during the day so when the kids get home from school the kitchen isn’t a mess, and I’m not rushing around trying to make dinner at the last-minute. This recipe for Honey Barbecue Chicken has got to be one of the easiest dinners ever. Simply marinade the chicken overnight, and place it on the grill just before dinner. Or prepare it ahead of time if you have a busy evening schedule {hello, fall sports anyone?}.

The chicken looks really yummy (I’ll be trying the recipe for dinner tomorrow night.) However, the rice looks equally good! Coul you please tell me what kind of rice dish it is? It doesn’t appear to be just plain rice. Thanks!
