Ingredients
1 red onion
1 poblano pepper
10 oz pkg ground chicken
5 oz white rice
¼ oz chorizo chili spice blend
2 (1 oz) cream cheese Milk
How to make it
1
Prep ingredients. Preheat oven to 425°F with a rack in the center. Halve onion and finely chop. Transfer ¼ cup chopped onion to a small bowl and reserve for step 5. Halve poblano pepper lengthwise, discard stem and seeds, then coarsely chop.
2
CHICKEN VARIATION. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a medium pot or Dutch oven over medium-high. Add poblano and remaining onions; cook, stirring occasionally, until crisp-tender and just beginning to brown, about 5 minutes. Add ground chicken and ½ teaspoon salt; cook chicken, breaking up into smaller pieces, until browned, about 5 minutes. Spoon off and discard any fat.
3
Toast & season rice. To pot with chicken, add rice and chorizo chili spice blend; cook, stirring, until toasted, about 2 minutes. Stir in 1¼ cups water and all of the cream cheese. Bring to a boil, stirring to incorporate cream cheese.
4
Bake rice. Cover rice and bake on center oven rack until water is absorbed and rice is cooked through, about 17 minutes.
5
Pickle onion & serve. Meanwhile, to small bowl with reserved onions, add 1 tablespoon vinegar, ½ teaspoon sugar, and ¼ teaspoon salt; stir to combine. Let sit, stirring occasionally, while rice bakes. Fluff rice with a fork and season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve baked rice and chicken topped with pickled onion. Enjoy!
6
Spice it up. The chorizo chili spice blend and poblano peppers already add a little heat to this one-pot bake, but if you want to kick it up when it's time to serve, add hot sauce or chopped pickled jalapeños.

Answer 5 quick questions. We'll match you to the top 3 from 24 services we track.
Be the first to rate this meal ↓ Opening I tracked my meal delivery spending through three summers. The pattern’s embarrassing: June hits, I promise myself I’ll meal prep and eat clean, then by July I’m ordering Chipotle at 9 PM because it’s 95 degrees and I can’t face turning on the stove. August? Full...
Be the first to rate this meal ↓ Opening I went vegan for 90 days while working 60-hour weeks. Not because I’m some wellness influencer with a meal prep Sunday ritual. because I wanted to see if it was actually possible without turning into the person who brings sad lettuce to every work lunch. The...
Be the first to rate this meal ↓ Opening I fed a family of six for three months using nothing but meal delivery services. My Costco membership gathered dust. My freezer became a staging area for Blue Apron boxes instead of bulk chicken thighs. The math shocked me. A family of six ordering Chipotle twice...
Be the first to rate this meal ↓ Opening I spent last summer testing every meal delivery service that promised to keep me eating clean while Nashville hit 95 degrees by 10 AM. The goal: figure out which services actually deliver fresh food that doesn’t wilt in transit, and which ones are just marketing “summer...
Be the first to rate this meal ↓ Opening I’ve cooked through a lot of meal kits trying to impress dates. Some worked. Some. did not. The difference between a fun couples’ cooking night and a kitchen disaster comes down to three things: timing (nobody wants to be chopping onions at 9 PM), difficulty (if...
Be the first to rate this meal ↓ Opening I spent three months ordering from every meal delivery service that claims to be “senior-friendly.” Some of them actually are. Most just slapped a stock photo of a smiling grandparent on their homepage and called it a day. Here’s what actually matters if you’re over 65...
Be the first to rate this meal ↓ Opening I spent three months feeding my nephew dinner from meal delivery services. He’s eight, picky as hell, and thinks vegetables are a personal attack. By week two, I had strong opinions. Here’s what I learned: most meal kits aren’t actually designed for kids. They’re designed for...
Be the first to rate this meal ↓ Opening I’ve spent more money on date night meal delivery than I care to admit. Not because I’m some kind of romantic. because I got tired of the same three restaurants and the “what do you want to eat” standoff that kills the vibe before you even...
Be the first to rate this meal ↓ Opening I tracked my mom’s Uber Eats spending for a month. $387. That number made me physically uncomfortable. She’s not ordering fancy stuff. just dinner because she’s exhausted after work and the idea of chopping vegetables sounds like a personal attack. The delivery apps know this. They...
Be the first to rate this meal ↓ Opening I spent $420 on a week of Sakara meals. That’s not a typo. $420 for five days of plant-based food delivered to my door in Brooklyn. The box showed up looking like it belonged in a Goop photo shoot, packed in compostable materials with little cards...
