So so good. Tender, juicy chicken, topping moist flavorful rice. Easy on the tummy, and low in FODMAPs. What a winner for the whole family!
My Parmesan Chicken Tenders with Garlic Rice has the simplicity and ease of one-pan preparation, which I adore. It uses chicken tenders, which you can buy without trimming (another win), and staples you have already in your kitchen.
Make this tonight and the kids will ask for thirds!
You may notice the ‘garlic’ in the ingredients. Read closely and you will see it in an oil base. I use low-FODMAP infused oils to incorporate the flavor of garlic (and onion) frequently, WITHOUT THE HIGH-FODMAP CARBOHYDRATES! Since FODMAPs are not dissolved or soluble in oil, these are a perfect way to add flavor to a recipe without flaring your IBS.

Ingredients
- 1 pound uncooked, boneless, skinless chicken tenders
- 1/2 teaspoon salt and pepper, plus to taste
- 2 tablespoons olive oil, or avocado oil
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter*
- 1/2 cup dry white wine*
- 1 & 1/2 cups of uncooked white or brown rice
- 3 cups low-FODMAP chicken broth or stock*
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese*
- 1 tablespoon garlic-infused olive oil*
- Lemon slices and minced fresh parsley, for serving
Instructions
- Pat tenders dry and season with salt and pepper on both sides
- Heat olive oil or avocado oil in a large skillet or Dutch Oven over medium, then add the chicken tenders and sear for 2-3 minutes per side until browned and cooked through
- Set aside on a covered plate for later
- Turn down the heat, and add the butter to the saucepan, allow it to melt on medium-low
- When butter is melted, pour in the white wine, and stir to cook for approximately 5 minutes, deglazing the pan
- Remove 3 tablespoons of the pan sauce for later use, then add the uncooked rice to the pan, and pour in the chicken broth
- Increase heat to medium, cover, and allow to simmer for 20 minutes, or until the rice is tender, stirring occasionally
- Once cooked, stir the garlic-infused oil into the rice, then sprinkle with Parmesan
- Remove from heat and cover for about 5 minutes, to melt the cheese
- If desired, you can also broil this for 30 seconds to 1 minute
- Lay the tenders over the rice, then drizzle with the remaining pan sauce
- Squeeze with lemon, and garnish with fresh parsley before serving
Notes
- Although this recipe has not been lab-tested, a single serving should be low-FODMAP based on available data at time of posting
- Infused oils do not contain the difficult to digest FODMAPs. Read more in my Top 11 Tips for the Low-FODMAP Diet That No One Ever Tells You, and Dr. Rachel’s Low-FODMAP Garlic Substitutes
- Select a low-FODMAP certified chicken broth, or make your own
- Butter and cheese are low in lactose and FODMAPs
- White wine is low-FODMAP in 150ml servings. Do not use bottled ‘cooking wine’, those will not taste right and be way too salty for this dish
